Toolchain.defs adds --fixed-r10 to CFLAGS under CONFIG_PIC, but nearly
every board Make.defs includes that file and then assigns
CFLAGS := $(ARCHCFLAGS) $(ARCHOPTIMIZATION) $(ARCHCPUFLAGS) ...
with ':=', which discards it. 266 of the 269 ARM board files assign
CFLAGS that way; the remaining three delegate to a shared makefile that
does the same thing.
The flag is what keeps the base firmware from allocating r10, the
register a PIC module reaches its own data through. Losing it is silent
and the symptom is remote from the cause: the build succeeds, and only a
callback from base firmware into module code -- qsort() with a module
comparison function is the standard case -- misbehaves, reading its data
through a register the firmware has since felt free to reuse.
Adding it to ARCHCFLAGS puts it on the far side of that ':=', which
re-expands ARCHCFLAGS, so every board picks it up with no board changes
at all.
A module is the other side of the --fixed-r10 contract: it gets r10 via
-mpic-register=r10, and GCC rejects both on one command line with
"unable to use 'r10' for PIC register". Every ARM board carried the
same three lines to set that up:
ARCHPICFLAGS = -fpic -msingle-pic-base -mpic-register=r10
CPICFLAGS = $(ARCHPICFLAGS) $(CFLAGS)
CXXPICFLAGS = $(ARCHPICFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS)
They move to arch/arm/src/common/Toolchain.defs, which also filters
--fixed-r10 back out of CPICFLAGS, CXXPICFLAGS, CELFFLAGS and
CXXELFFLAGS in one place instead of each board having to know about the
interaction. ARCHPICFLAGS uses '?=' and the derived flags use deferred
'=', so a board can still override or append after including the file,
and CFLAGS is whatever the board finally set it to.
Two boards keep a definition because they genuinely differ: am67 adds
-ffixed-r10 and tiva conditionally adds -mno-pic-data-is-text-relative.
tlsr82 previously appended -fpic to an unset variable, so only -fpic
ever reached its compiler; it now inherits the standard set, verified
against tc32-elf-gcc 4.5.1.tc32-elf-1.5 (Telink TC32 v2.0), whose
ARM-derived backend honors -msingle-pic-base and -mpic-register=r10.
The mps2, mps3, qemu-armv7a, qemu-armv7r, fvp and mcx-nxxx families
referenced ARCHPICFLAGS without ever defining it, so their CPICFLAGS
carried no PIC flags at all; they get the standard set too.
Also adds the missing space in
CXXELFFLAGS = $(CXXFLAGS)-fvisibility=hidden -mlong-calls
which ran the last token of CXXFLAGS into -fvisibility=hidden, yielding
a single malformed token such as -DNDEBUG-fvisibility=hidden.
Also exempts the pre-existing "*.siz" gsize comment in Toolchain.defs
from codespell, which reads "siz" as a misspelling and fires for any
patch touching the file, since checkpatch scans whole files rather than
changed lines.
Before, with CONFIG_PIC=y: CFLAGS has --fixed-r10: NO
After: CFLAGS has --fixed-r10: YES
CPICFLAGS/CELFFLAGS: filtered out

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.
This is part of https://github.com/apache/nuttx/issues/19410
Compiles ok.

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.

(2) Exclude symbols ending with crtend.* and crtbegin.* to support c++

At the moment they are moved to Documentation/platforms and included in rst files
When I try to set priorities in certain programs, such as init_priority(HIGH_PRIORITY), I've noticed that during linking, there's no guarantee that the programs will be compiled in the sequence I've specified based on priority. This has led to some runtime errors in my program.
I realized that in the ld file, when initializing dynamic arrays, there's no assurance of initializing init_array.* before init_array. This has resulted in runtime errors in the program. Consequently, I've rearranged the init_array.* in the ld file of NuttX to be placed before init_array and added a SORT operation to init_array.* to ensure accurate initialization based on priorities during linking.
replace *(.init_array .init_array.*) with KEEP(*(.init_array .init_array.*)).
The KEEP statement within a linker script will instruct the linker to keep the specified section, even if no symbols inside it are referenced. This statement is used within the SECTIONS section of the linker script. This becomes relevant when garbage collection is performed at link time, enabled by passing the --gc-sections switch to the linker. The KEEP statement instructs the linker to use the specified section as a root node when creating a dependency graph, looking for unused sections. Essentially forcing the section to be marked as used.

## Summary
A lot of linker scripts were listed twice, once for unix, once for windows.
This PR cleans up the logic so they're only listed once.
## Impact
Any opportunity to use a single source of truth and reduce lines of code is a win!
## Testing
CI will test all build
State of problem:
- Some drivers that do not support write operations (does not
have write handler or ioctl do not perform any write actions)
are registered with write permissions
- Some drivers that do not support read operation (does not
have read handler or ioctl do not perform any read actions)
are registered with read permissions
- Some drivers are registered with execute permissions
Solution:
- Iterate code where register_driver() is used and change 'mode'
parameter to reflect the actual read/write operations executed
by a driver
- Remove execute permissions from 'mode' parameter

This reverts commit 45672c269d.
Because:
* It's very confusing to have cc as LD.
* I don't see what "-nostartfiles -nodefaultlibs" in LDFLAGS are
supposed to do when we use LD directly. It would be simpler to
remove them from our LDFLAGS.
