Summary
Permissions (Part 3)
Description:
In kernel builds, any unprivileged process running on the NuttX device can
open /dev/efuse and attempt to read/write fuse content. Reading the fuses
may provide valuable information to an attacker controlling the user process.
The write operation, in extreme cases where the fuse blocks are not locked,
may brick the device.
DISCLAIMER: I tried to be strict with the settings, better to relax them
later if it's needed.

debug.h is a NuttX-specific, non-POSIX header. Placing it in the
top-level include/ directory creates naming conflicts with external
projects that define their own debug.h.
This commit moves the canonical header to include/nuttx/debug.h,
following the NuttX convention for non-POSIX/non-standard headers,
and updates all in-tree references.
A backward-compatibility shim is left at include/debug.h that
emits a deprecation #warning and re-includes <nuttx/debug.h>,
allowing out-of-tree code to continue building while migrating.

NVBLK provides a block device that operates on top of a non volatile
memory (as a mtd device) that enables wear levelling for non volatile
memory. It's operation is similar to the dhara wear levelling library,
but nvblk is meant to be used on smaller (nor, mram, rram) memory.
I am also the author and maintainer of the nvblk library.
A block device can be created during startup by using:
```
nvblk_initialize(0, mtd, CONFIG_MTD_NVBLK_DEFAULT_LBS,
CONFIG_MTD_NVBLK_DEFAULT_IOBS,
CONFIG_MTD_NVBLK_DEFAULT_SPEB);
```
and a fat filesystem on top of this as:
```
nsh> mkfatfs /dev/mtdblock0
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mtdblock0 /mnt
```
this fat filesystem can then be used:
```
nsh> echo "test" > /mnt/test.txt
nsh> cat test.txt
test
nsh>
```
