    ARMV7: threading support for cooperative multitasking
    
    These functions add support for cooperative multitasking.
    Currently, since we only have one ARM SOC that uses or supports multitasking,
    arch_get_thread_stackbase returns CONFIG_STACK_BOTTOM for the thread stack.
    We may end up having to make a cpu-specific function that arch_get_thread_stackbase calls,
    but let's avoid adding complexity until we're sure we need to. We also wish to avoid
    creating Yet Another Config Variable but will do so if pressed.
    
    The switch code only saves r4-r11 and lr, which is consistent with the standard.
