Add priority nodes which contribute to the overall thread priority.
The actual priority of a thread is now an aggregation of priority nodes.
The thread priority aggregation for the home scheduler instance of a
thread consists of at least one priority node, which is normally the
real priority of the thread. The locking protocols (e.g. priority
ceiling and priority inheritance), rate-monotonic period objects and the
POSIX sporadic server add, change and remove priority nodes.
A thread changes its priority now immediately, e.g. priority changes are
not deferred until the thread releases its last resource.
Replace the _Thread_Change_priority() function with
* _Thread_Priority_perform_actions(),
* _Thread_Priority_add(),
* _Thread_Priority_remove(),
* _Thread_Priority_change(), and
* _Thread_Priority_update().

Provide the scheduler node to initialize or destroy to the corresponding
operations. This makes it possible to have more than one scheduler node
per thread.

The thread priority is manifest in two independent areas. One area is
the user visible thread priority along with a potential thread queue.
The other is the scheduler. Currently, a thread priority update via
_Thread_Change_priority() first updates the user visble thread priority
and the thread queue, then the scheduler is notified if necessary. The
priority is passed to the scheduler via a local variable. A generation
counter ensures that the scheduler discards out-of-date priorities.
This use of a local variable ties the update in these two areas close
together. For later enhancements and the OMIP locking protocol
implementation we need more flexibility. Add a thread priority
information block to Scheduler_Node and synchronize priority value
updates via a sequence lock on SMP configurations.
Update #2556.

The following scheduler operations return a thread in need for help
- unblock,
- change priority, and
- yield.
A thread in need for help is a thread that encounters a scheduler state
change from scheduled to ready or a thread that cannot be scheduled in
an unblock operation. Such a thread can ask threads which depend on
resources owned by this thread for help.
Add a new ask for help scheduler operation. This operation is used by
_Scheduler_Ask_for_help() to help threads in need for help returned by
the operations mentioned above. This operation is also used by
_Scheduler_Thread_change_resource_root() in case the root of a resource
sub-tree changes. A use case is the ownership change of a resource.
In case it is not possible to schedule a thread in need for help, then
the corresponding scheduler node will be placed into the set of ready
scheduler nodes of the scheduler instance. Once a state change from
ready to scheduled happens for this scheduler node it may be used to
schedule the thread in need for help.

Replace _Scheduler_Allocate() with _Scheduler_Node_initialize(). Remove
the return status and thus the node initialization must be always
successful.
Rename _Scheduler_Free() to _Scheduler_Node_destroy().
