Peter Mitsis 249d623210 Fix microkernel app_kernel benchmark
The event portion of the app_kernel benchmark no longer outputs the following
(abbreviated) error message:
   <path to project>/app_kernel/src/event_b.c:86 Error: tick occurred

This error was occurring as the benchmark test had hard-coded the value of
the event TEST_EVENT to 0 instead of defining it in the prj.mdef file.
Consequently, the system was using event 0 for the tick event; every time
task_event_send(TEST_EVENT) was invoked, the system treated it as a tick event.

Title: Microkernel Object Performance

Description:

AppKernel is used to measure the performance of microkernel events, mutexes,
semaphores, FIFOs, mailboxes, pipes, memory maps, and memory pools.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Building and Running Project:

This microkernel project outputs to the console. It can be built and executed
on QEMU as follows:

    make qemu

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Troubleshooting:

Problems caused by out-dated project information can be addressed by
issuing one of the following commands then rebuilding the project:

    make clean          # discard results of previous builds
                        # but keep existing configuration info
or
    make pristine       # discard results of previous builds
                        # and restore pre-defined configuration info
