Anas Nashif 60b18711f3 tests: remove duplicate kernel configs and usage of ARCH
Many test configs are the same, remove complexity and duplication by
using just one kernel config where applicable.

This removes the usage of ARCH which is a remnant from the days where
we had to specify the architecture of the board, the architecture is now
part of Kconfig and determined basded on the board configuration.

This will also make it easy adding new architectures to test cases without
having to add an architecture specific config file when it is actually not
needed, for example now that we will enable micro-kernel support on ARC.

Test Description
----------------

The object tracing test is a sanity test to verify that the
object tracing API remains healthy on both the nanokernel and
microkernel.

It uses the philsophers as a common application that implements
multiple taks that are synchronized with mutexes.

The application initializes their objects and starts the philosophers'
task interaction. A specific task, called object monitor, accesses
the object tracing API and reports the number of expected objects.

The sanity test script expects each test to finish its execution
and then it considers the test completed. For that reason the
philosophers' threads execute a finite number of iterations. After
that the application execution ends.
