This change removes the FreeRTOS System Calls (aka MPU wrappers) for the
following kernel APIs:
- xTaskCreateRestricted
- xTaskCreateRestrictedStatic
- vTaskAllocateMPURegions
A system call allows an unprivileged task to execute a kernel API which
is otherwise accessible to privileged software only. The above 3 APIs
can create a new task with a different MPU configuration or alter the
MPU configuration of an existing task. This an be (mis)used by an
unprivileged task to grant itself access to a region which it does not
have access to.
Removing the system calls for these APIs ensures that an unprivileged
task cannot execute this APIs. If an unprivileged task attempts to
execute any of these API, it will result in a Memory Fault.

Critical sections in FreeRTOS are implemented using the following two
functions:
void vPortEnterCritical( void )
{
portDISABLE_INTERRUPTS();
uxCriticalNesting++;
}
void vPortExitCritical( void )
{
uxCriticalNesting--;
if( uxCriticalNesting == 0 )
{
portENABLE_INTERRUPTS();
}
}
uxCriticalNesting is initialized to a large value at the start and set
to zero when the scheduler is started (xPortStartScheduler). As a
result, before the scheduler is started, a pair of enter/exit critical
section will leave the interrupts disabled because uxCriticalNesting
will not reach zero in the vPortExitCritical function. This is done to
ensure that the interrupts remain disabled from the time first FreeRTOS
API is called to the time when the scheduler is started. The scheduler
starting code is expected to enure that interrupts are enabled before
the first task starts executing.
Cortex-M33 ports were not enabling interrupts before starting the first
task and as a result, the first task was started with interrupts
disabled. This PR fixes the issue by ensuring that interrupts are
enabled before the first task is started.

* Xtensa: fix the coproc_area incorrect issue
foss-xtensa/amazon-freertos#2 mentioned a issue:
1.
In function pxPortInitialiseStack(StackType_t *pxTopOfStack....)
p = (uint32_t *)(((uint32_t) pxTopOfStack - XT_CP_SIZE) & ~0xf);
In function prvInitialiseNewTask (file: task.c)
pxTopOfStack = (pxStack + (ulStackDepth - 1)) & (~portBYTE_ALIGNMENT_MASK)
So the co-processor area is at
p = (uint32_t *)(((uint32_t)((pxStack + (ulStackDepth - 1)) & (~portBYTE_ALIGNMENT_MASK)) - XT_CP_SIZE) & ~0xf);
2.
In function vPortStoreTaskMPUSettings( .... , StackType_t pxBottomOfStack ...)
xMPUSettings->coproc_area = (StackType_t)((((uint32_t)(pxBottomOfStack + usStackDepth - 1)) - XT_CP_SIZE) & ~0xf);
pxBottomOfStack = pxStack
=> xMPUSettings->coproc_area = (StackType_t*)((((uint32_t)(pxStack+ ulStackDepth - 1)) - XT_CP_SIZE ) & ~0xf);
The p is coproc_area that should be equal to xMPUSettings->coproc_area.
For example, assume pxStack is 0xa0000000, ulStackDepth is 0x2000,
portBYTE_ALIGNMENT_MASK is 0x7f, XT_CP_SIZE is 0x100.
The p = (uint32_t)(((uint32_t)((pxStack + (ulStackDepth - 1)) & (~portBYTE_ALIGNMENT_MASK)) - XT_CP_SIZE) & ~0xf)
= 0xa0001e80
The xMPUSettings->coproc_area = (StackType_t)((((uint32_t)(pxStack+ usStackDepth - 1)) - XT_CP_SIZE ) & ~0xf)
= 0xa0001ef0
Obviously, the p is not equal to the xMPUSettings->coproc_area, which will cause context switching error.

* Update port.c
Co-authored-by: Carl Lundin <53273776+lundinc2@users.noreply.github.com>
In function pxPortInitialiseStack of port.c:
sp = ( StackType_t * ) ( ( ( UBaseType_t ) ( pxTopOfStack + 1 ) - XT_CP_SIZE - XT_STK_FRMSZ ) & ~0xf );
We assume XT_CP_SIZE is 0xE4, XT_STK_FRMSZ is 0xA0, pxTopOfStack is 0xA0000000, sp is 0x9FFFFE80.
From port.c, we know the frame->a1 as below:
frame->a1 = ( UBaseType_t ) sp + XT_STK_FRMSZ; /* physical top of stack frame */
So frame->a1 is 0x9FFFFF20. Therefore the interrupt stack frame range is 0x9FFFFE80 ~ 0x9FFFFF20.
The coproc_area is: p = ( uint32_t * ) ( ( ( uint32_t ) pxTopOfStack - XT_CP_SIZE ) & ~0xf );
So its value is 0x9FFFFF10. Obviously, the interrupt stack frame overlaps the coproc_area.

If a higher priority task than the currently running task was resumed
using xTaskResumeFromISR and the user chose to ignore the return value
of xTaskResumeFromISR to initiate a context switch using
portYIELD_FROM_ISR, we were not doing the context switch on the next run
of the scheduler. This change fixes this by marking a yield as pending
to ensure that the context switch is performed on the next run of the
scheduler.

This PR:
Changes the INCLUDE_vTaskDelayUntil compile time constant to INCLUDE_xTaskDelayUntil.
Updates FreeRTOS.h to ensure backward compatibility for projects that already have INCLUDE_vTaskDelayUntil defined.
Updates the MPU prototypes, wrapper and implementation to use the updated xTaskDelayUntil() function.
Tests to be checked into the FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS repository after this PR.
* Renamed old port to ESP_IDF_V3
* Update ESP32 port files to support IDF v4.2.

* Posix: Fix no task switching issue if a task ended
When the main function of a task exits, no task switching happened.
This is because all the remaining tasks are waiting on the condition
variable. The fix is to trigger a task switch and mark the exiting
task as "Dying" to be suspened and exited properly from the scheduler.

* Posix: Free Idle task resources after ending the scheduler
In case of using Posix simulator and ending the scheduler, it does
not free the resources allocated by the idle task. This
causes the memory checkers (Valgrind, Address Sanitizers, ..) to
complain.
* Posix: Free the condition variable memory in the correct place
In case of deleting a task from another task, the deletion happens
immediately and the thread is canceled but the memory allocated by
the task condition variable is not freed. This causes the memory
checkers (Valgrind, Address sanitizers, ..) to complain.
