Enable return code with semi-hosting SYS_EXIT_EXTENDED
The _exit function currently passes -1 as a "sig" to the _kill function as an
invalid signal number so that _kill can distinguish between an abort and a
standard exit.
For boards using the SYS_EXIT_EXTENDED semi-hosting operation to return a
status code, this means that the "status" paramter to _exit is ignored and the
return code is always -1.
https://developer.arm.com/docs/100863/latest/semihosting-operations/sys_exit_extended-0x20
This patch puts shared code between _kill and _exit into a new function
_kill_shared that takes the semi-hosting "reason" to use (if semi-hosting is
available) as an argument.
For semi-hosting _kill_shared provides that "reason".
Without the "sig" argument being used to distinguish between a normal and
abnormal exit, the _exit function can provide the return code to be used if the
SYS_EXIT_EXTENDED operation is available.

Improve performance of strstr
v3: Add support for read ahead using strnlen, giving an additional 25% speedup
on large inputs (both short and long needles).
This patch significantly improves performance of strstr by using Sunday's
Quick-Search algorithm. Due to its simplicity it has the best average
performance of string matching algorithms on almost all inputs. It uses a
bad-character shift table to skip past mismatches.
The needle length is limited to 254 - this reduces the shift table memory
4 to 8 times, lowering preprocessing overhead and minimizing cache effects.
The limit also implies its worst-case performance is linear.
Larger needles are processed by the Two-Way algorithm. The macro AVAILABLE
has been improved to use strnlen to read the input in chunks. This results
in a 2.5 times speedup for large needles, reducing the performance drop when
the Quick-Search algorithm can't be used.
The code for 1-4 byte needles has been simplified and now uses unsigned
char. Since the optimized code relies on 8-bit chars, we defer to the
size-optimized implementation if CHAR_BIT > 8.
The performance gain of finding a set of randomly chosen words of size 8 in
256 bytes of English text is 14 times on AArch64. For longer haystacks the
gain is well over 20 times.
The size-optimized strstr has also been rewritten from scratch to improve
performance. On the same test the performance gain is 69%.
Tested against GLIBC testsuite, randomized tests and the GNULIB strstr test
(https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/tree/tests/test-strstr.c).

Avoid ARM SWI Seek when querying file position
Issuing an ARM semi-hosting Seek command when just querying file
position with SEEK_CUR and offset zero is unnecessary, because unlike
the lseek() Unix system call the Seek command does not actually return
the file position. For that reason, syscalls.c for ARM keeps track of
file position in the 'poslog', so we can just return that.
Moreover, since the Seek command only accepts an absolute file position,
SEEK_CUR operations are implemented by adding the relative offset to the
position in the poslog. If the host implements non-binary files with
implicit carriage return characters but doesn't discount those implicit
CRs when implementing Seek (by just mapping straight to Windows file
operations), this actually ended up wrongly changing file position when
using SEEK_CUR with offset zero or functions like ftell() or fgetpos()
