Based on Andy's talk at eoss 2024, use the sys/sem.h api instead
of the spinlock.h api to synchronize pooled elements since it
has minimal overhead like semaphores but also works from
userspace.

Zephyr's POSIX API is moving toward using the standard
nomenclature from IEEE 1003.1-2017 for as much as possible. In
particular, we want to have consistent naming between Zephyr's
POSIX API Kconfig options and the naming for POSIX Options and
Option Groups.
The Kconfig option CONFIG_PTHREAD_IPC has been (ab)used for a
very long time for a variety of different purposes. However,
the standard Option / feature test macro for POSIX Threads is,
intuitively _POSIX_THREADS. There is a corresponding sysconf()
key named _SC_POSIX_THREADS.
Annoyingly, the POSIX Option Group that corresponds to the
Option is POSIX_THREADS_BASE, which is a minor inconsistency
in the standard.
The _POSIX_THREADS Option already includes mutexes, condition
variables, and thread-specific storage (keys). So with this
change, we also deprecate the redundant Kconfig variables that
do not have a corresponding match in the standard.
- CONFIG_PTHREAD_IPC
- CONFIG_PTHREAD
- CONFIG_PTHREAD_COND
- CONFIG_PTHREAD_MUTEX
- CONFIG_PTHREAD_KEY
Additionally, create Kconfig variables for those configurables
which we are lacking:
- CONFIG_POSIX_THREADS_EXT
- CONFIG_POSIX_THREAD_ATTR_STACKSIZE
- CONFIG_POSIX_THREAD_ATTR_STACKADDR
- CONFIG_POSIX_THREAD_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING
- CONFIG_POSIX_THREAD_PRIO_INHERIT
- CONFIG_POSIX_THREAD_PRIO_PROTECT
- CONFIG_POSIX_THREAD_SAFE_FUNCTIONS
Some Kconfig variables were renamed to more properly match the spec:
- CONFIG_MAX_PTHREAD_COUNT -> CONFIG_POSIX_THREAD_THREADS_MAX
- CONFIG_MAX_PTHREAD_KEY_COUNT -> CONFIG_POSIX_THREAD_KEYS_MAX

In Zephyr, things are often optimized for size first. That's how
we fit into such tight parking spaces.
This change gives more control to the user about whether the
POSIX API does any logging at all, simultaneously shrinking binary
size while improving speed.
No bytes / cycles left behind!

Previously, the POSIX shell utilities were intermixed with the
POSIX API implementation.
The POSIX shell utilities only depend on the public POSIX API,
so it makes sense to keep them in a separate subdirectory.
