Stefan Kalkowski c3d4802ac8 hw: re-implement lazy FPU context switch
The new implementation of the FPU and FPU context is taken out to
separate architecture-dependent header files. The generic Cpu_lazy_state
is deleted. There is no hint about the existence of something like an
FPU in the generic non-architexture-dependent code anymore. Instead the
architecture-dependent CPU context of a thread is extended by an FPU
context where supported.

Moreover, the current FPU implementations are enhanced so that threads
that get deleted now release the FPU when still obtaining it.

Fix #1855

Stefan Kalkowski e05d26567d hw: make 'smp' property an aspect (Ref #1312)
This commit separates certain SMP aspects into 'spec/smp' subdirectories.
Thereby it simplifies non-SMP implementations again, where no locking
and several platform specific maintainance operations are not needed.
Moreover, it moves several platform specifics to appropriated places,
removes dead code from x86, and starts to turn global static pointers
into references that are handed over.

Stefan Kalkowski c850462f43 hw: replace kernel's object id allocators
Instead of having an ID allocator per object class use one global allocator for
all. Thereby artificial limitations for the different object types are
superfluent. Moreover, replace the base-hw specific id allocator implementation
with the generic Bit_allocator, which is also memory saving.
