Allan Stephens 6ac33f2b9f kernel: Introduce sys_thread_busy_wait() API
Provides a way for a fiber or task to busy wait for a specified
period of time. This is useful in situations where a delay needs
to be performed without switching execution to another context,
such as:

1) It would take longer to switch to another context and then switch
   back again than to simply busy wait.

2) A delay is required by the kernel's main task (i.e. the nanokernel's
   background task or the microkernel's idle task). This task is not
   allowed to voluntarily relinquish the CPU because this would leave
   the kernel with nothing to execute in its place.
