score: Work area initialization API change
The work areas (RTEMS work space and C program heap) will be initialized now in a separate step and are no longer part of rtems_initialize_data_structures(). Initialization is performed with tables of Heap_Area entries. This allows usage of scattered memory areas present on various small scale micro-controllers. The sbrk() support API changes also. The bsp_sbrk_init() must now deal with a minimum size for the first memory chunk to take the configured work space size into account.
