Previously the syscall list was generated only from the include
folder. This is a limitation when the application tries to create
system calls. This patch create a simple way to include these
new syscalls without the application touching the kernel.
This can be enabled by a Kconfig CONFIG_APPLICATION_DEFINED_SYSCALL.
Once enabled the application source directory will be scanned to
find all application defined syscalls.

In order to support both "/" and "\" as OS path separators,
use the correct Python os.sep helper.

This commit fixes
https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/issues/5008.
It does so by splitting up gen_syscalls.py into two scripts with a
json metadata file to communicate syscall metadata between them. The
parsing script parses header files from include/ and writes syscall
metadata to a file if the contents changed. The generation script
reads from the json file and generates syscall code.
The build system DAG now looks like this:
always_rebuild -> json -> syscalls -> offset.o
The script for generating json will do so only if the content changes,
this ensures that the entire DAG does not always do a full rebuild.
