The test_timer_periodicity test is racy and subject to initial state
bugs. The operation of that test is to:
1. Start a timer with a known period
2. Take the current time with k_uptime_get()
3. Wait for the timer to fire with k_timer_status_sync()
4. Check that the current time minus start time is the period
But that's wrong, because a tick expiring between any of the first
three steps is going to skew the math (i.e. the timer will have
started on a different tick than the "start time").
And taking an interrupt lock around the process can't fix the issue,
because in the tickless world we live in k_uptime_get() is actually a
realtime quanity based on a hardware counter and doesn't rely on
interrupt delivery.
Instead, use another timer object to synchronize the test start to a
driver tick, ensuring that even if the race is unfixable the initial
conditions are always correct.

Added test to cover the case where the app can start the timer
even before the previous one is expired. In this case the timer
will start with latest settings or params.

Add test case description and doxygen groups for tracebility.
Add references to APIs being tested in timer component.

Remove unstructured and unused doxygen groups for tests. We will now add
doxygen comments per test function and follow a more structured
grouping.

For many tests, avoid splitting into files and put eveything in main.c.
For many of the tests, use main.c as the test source file to keep things
consistent.

Added a test to check for the predictability with which
the timer expires depending on the period configured.

Arguments are not needed and in some cases are being set as unused in
the same function. The test_main function is called from ztest main
routine without any arguments.

Replace the existing Apache 2.0 boilerplate header with an SPDX tag
throughout the zephyr code tree. This patch was generated via a
script run over the master branch.
Also updated doc/porting/application.rst that had a dependency on
line numbers in a literal include.
Manually updated subsys/logging/sys_log.c that had a malformed
header in the original file. Also cleanup several cases that already
had a SPDX tag and we either got a duplicate or missed updating.
