Gerard Marull-Paretas 79e6b0e0f6 includes: prefer <zephyr/kernel.h> over <zephyr/zephyr.h>
As of today <zephyr/zephyr.h> is 100% equivalent to <zephyr/kernel.h>.
This patch proposes to then include <zephyr/kernel.h> instead of
<zephyr/zephyr.h> since it is more clear that you are including the
Kernel APIs and (probably) nothing else. <zephyr/zephyr.h> sounds like a
catch-all header that may be confusing. Most applications need to
include a bunch of other things to compile, e.g. driver headers or
subsystem headers like BT, logging, etc.

The idea of a catch-all header in Zephyr is probably not feasible
anyway. Reason is that Zephyr is not a library, like it could be for
example `libpython`. Zephyr provides many utilities nowadays: a kernel,
drivers, subsystems, etc and things will likely grow. A catch-all header
would be massive, difficult to keep up-to-date. It is also likely that
an application will only build a small subset. Note that subsystem-level
headers may use a catch-all approach to make things easier, though.

NOTE: This patch is **NOT** removing the header, just removing its usage
in-tree. I'd advocate for its deprecation (add a #warning on it), but I
understand many people will have concerns.

NVS: Non-Volatile Storage
#########################

Overview
********

This is a simple application demonstrating use of the NVS
module for non-volatile (flash) storage.  In this application,
a counter is incremented on every reboot and stored in flash,
the application reboots, and the reboot counter data is retrieved.

Requirements
************

* A board with flash support

Building and Running
********************

This sample can be found under :zephyr_file:`samples/subsys/nvs` in the Zephyr tree.

The sample can be build for several platforms, the following commands build the
application for the nrf51dk_nrf51422 board.

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/subsys/nvs
   :board: nrf51dk_nrf51422
   :goals: build flash
   :compact:

After flashing the image to the board the output on the console shows the
reboot counter and the boards reboots several times to show the reboot counter
is incremented.
