libpthread: Move namespacing include to top of .c files.

Stuff like libc's namespace.h, or atomic_op_namespace.h, which does
namespacing tricks like `#define atomic_cas_uint _atomic_cas_uint',
has to go at the top of each .c file. If it goes in the middle, it
might be too late to affect the declarations, and result in compile
errors.

I tripped over this by including <sys/atomic.h> in mips
<machine/lock.h>.

(Maybe we should create a new pthread_namespace.h file for the
purpose, but this'll do for now.)

Check thread->pt_magic with PT_MAGIC promptly

Rip out some very ambitious optimisations around pthread_mutex that are
don't buy much. This stuff is hard enough to get right in the kernel let
alone userspace, and I don't trust that it's right.

pthread_kill, pthread_sigmask: return errno, not the return from the system
call. Found by VSTHlite.

Remove clause 3 and 4 from TNF licenses

- Remove libpthread's atomic ops.
- Remove the old spinlock-based mutex and rwlock implementations.
- Use the atomic ops from libc.

update for _sched_{get,set}param changes. from rmind@.

sched_setparam: fix the case when incorrect (according to the class)
in-kernel priority is used. Reported by <drochner>.

Minor fixes for scheduling calls to conform the POSIX:
- If pid is equal to zero, use the calling process;
- In case of permission problem, return EPERM instead of EACESS;
- sched_setscheduler() should return previously used policy;
- pthread_* calls should return the error code or zero;

Should fix the namespace problems (and builds of some packages):
- Move cpuset_t defintion from pset.h to sched.h;
- Remove the #include of pset.h in pthread.h;

Implementation of processor-sets, affinity and POSIX real-time extensions.
Add schedctl(8) - a program to control scheduling of processes and threads.

Notes:
- This is supported only by SCHED_M2;

Trim fat off libpthread internal spinlock operations. Makes a mesurable
improvement across the board.

Remove the PTHREAD_SA option. If M:N threads is reimplemented it's
better off done with a seperate library.
