80fa23da5e hw: increase timing accuracy of kernel (fix #3081)
* Introduce 64-bit tick counter
* Let the timer always count when possible, also if it already fired
* Simplify the kernel syscall API to have one current time call,
  which returns the elapsed microseconds since boot

eba9c15746 Follow practices suggested by "Effective C++"
The patch adjust the code of the base, base-<kernel>, and os repository.
To adapt existing components to fix violations of the best practices
suggested by "Effective C++" as reported by the -Weffc++ compiler
argument. The changes follow the patterns outlined below:

* A class with virtual functions can no longer publicly inherit base
  classed without a vtable. The inherited object may either be moved
  to a member variable, or inherited privately. The latter would be
  used for classes that inherit 'List::Element' or 'Avl_node'. In order
  to enable the 'List' and 'Avl_tree' to access the meta data, the
  'List' must become a friend.

* Instead of adding a virtual destructor to abstract base classes,
  we inherit the new 'Interface' class, which contains a virtual
  destructor. This way, single-line abstract base classes can stay
  as compact as they are now. The 'Interface' utility resides in
  base/include/util/interface.h.

* With the new warnings enabled, all member variables must be explicitly
  initialized. Basic types may be initialized with '='. All other types
  are initialized with braces '{ ... }' or as class initializers. If
  basic types and non-basic types appear in a row, it is nice to only
  use the brace syntax (also for basic types) and align the braces.

* If a class contains pointers as members, it must now also provide a
  copy constructor and assignment operator. In the most cases, one
  would make them private, effectively disallowing the objects to be
  copied. Unfortunately, this warning cannot be fixed be inheriting
  our existing 'Noncopyable' class (the compiler fails to detect that
  the inheriting class cannot be copied and still gives the error).
  For now, we have to manually add declarations for both the copy
  constructor and assignment operator as private class members. Those
  declarations should be prepended with a comment like this:

        /*
         * Noncopyable
         */
        Thread(Thread const &);
        Thread &operator = (Thread const &);

  In the future, we should revisit these places and try to replace
  the pointers with references. In the presence of at least one
  reference member, the compiler would no longer implicitly generate
  a copy constructor. So we could remove the manual declaration.

Issue #465

96eb82574a hw: fix race in core's pager code (fix #2301)
* Acknowledge receive of page-fault signal with ack_signal,
  but restart thread execution separately
* use kill_signal_context when disolving a pager_object to prevent race
* Remove bureaucracy in form of Thread_event and Signal_ack_handler
* remove dead code in riscv, namely Thread_base definition
* translation_table_insertions function for ARM drops out,
  which was overcautious

c1bb82fb6b base-hw: make Muen sinfo API publicly available
The sinfo function declared in sinfo_instance.h creates a static sinfo
object instance and returns a pointer to the caller.

- kernel timer and platform support to use sinfo() function to
  instantiate sinfo object
- address and size of the base-hw RAM region via the sinfo API
- log_status() function in sinfo API

ed52d5a211 Introduce 'spec' subdirectories to outline aspects
Instead of holding SPEC-variable dependent files and directories inline
within the repository structure, move them into 'spec' subdirectories
at the corresponding levels, e.g.:

  repos/base/include/spec
  repos/base/mk/spec
  repos/base/lib/mk/spec
  repos/base/src/core/spec
  ...

Moreover, this commit removes the 'platform' directories. That term was
used in an overloaded sense. All SPEC-relative 'platform' directories are
now named 'spec'. Other files, like for instance those related to the
kernel/architecture specific startup library, where moved from 'platform'
directories to explicit, more meaningful places like e.g.: 'src/lib/startup'.

Fix #1673
