Benjamin Walsh c2aecb26cc samples: fix kernel_event_logger to work with unified kernel
The test is modified to key on CONFIG_TASK_MONITOR instead of
CONFIG_MICROKERNEL, since that is what it was really interested in.
Also, this allows the unified kernel to work w.r.t. task monitoring,
since that is a concept that is alien to the unified kernel, since there
are no more task transitions recorded as part of a kernel server. The
unified kernel does not have a CONFIG_TASK_MONITORING option.

To make this work, since the kernel_event_logger sample makes use of the
philosophers demo, the latter had to be modified as well. The nanokernel
philosophers demo would not work with the unifed kernel since it
identifies as a microkernel, and in that case the test would be looking
for symbols defined in an MDEF file, which the nanokernel demo does not
provide of course; the same thing applies to the nanokernel
kernel_event_logger sample. Instead, the demo defines NANO_APIS_ONLY=1,
which is really what it is interested in. To allow that definition to
exist, the nanokernel philosophers demo and both the nano/micro
kernel_event_logger samples add src/ directory with its own Makefile and
add their own phil_fiber.c and phil.h files, which simply include the
original files from the microkernel philosophers demo. As a final
change, the kernel_event_logger samples need a different prj.conf file
for the unified kernel, since it needs a bigger idle stack than the
default, since the kernel event logger does work in the idle thread when
the kernel goes to sleep.

Title: Kernel Event Logger Sample

Description:

This sample uses the philosopher sample with two additional tasks to show the
profiling data on different system's states. The fork manager task controls the
fork's availibilty. The worker task performs intermitently heavy processing,
allowing or preventing the system to go idle.

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

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


Problems with QEMU on ARM:
Qemu v2.1 for ARM platform do not support tickless idle. If run the sample
project in QEMU with the CONFIG_TICKLESS_IDLE option enabled, the project
could present an erratic behaviour.
