issue description:
task A: NSH:
1.open-> reboot->sync->task_fsfsync
2.nx_vopen-> context switch
3.fdlist_allocate: ----> 4.fsync->file_sync->assert(inode or priv is empty)
(new fd with empty filep)
5.file_vopen:
(init empty filep)
6.return fd
Task A allocates a new fd with an empty filep in fdlist_allocate. Before
it can fully initialize the filep in file_vopen, the NSH task triggers a
file - system sync operation. The sync operation encounters the empty
filep associated with the newly allocated fd, causing the assertion to
fail and the system to crash.
To resolve this race condition, we should modify the fd allocation
process. Instead of allocating a new fd with an empty filep first and
then initializing it later, we should use the file_allocate_from_inode
function. This function allows us to initialize the file structure first
and then bind it to the new filep when allocating the fd. By doing so,
we ensure that the filep is always properly initialized before it is
used in any file - system operations, thus preventing the assertion
failure and the subsequent system crash.

Issue:
When using a stack-allocated file structure, the sequence:
1. file_open() initializes the stack file structure
2. file_mmap() creates memory mapping and increments reference count
3. file_munmap() decrements reference count and may free the file structure
4. file_close() attempts to close already freed structure → crash
Root cause:
The memory mapping operations (fs_reffilep/fs_putfilep) manage reference counts
independently and can free the stack-allocated file structure prematurely.
Solution:
- Add reference count protection during file_open() for stack-allocated files
- Clear reference count appropriately during file_close()
- This ensures the file structure remains valid throughout its lifetime

To save more space (equivalent to the size of one erase sector of
MTD device) and to achieve faster read and write speeds, a method
for direct writing was introduced at the FTL layer.
This can be accomplished simply by using the following oflags during
the open operation:
1. O_DIRECT. when this flag is passed in, ftl internally uses
the direct write strategy and no read cache is used in ftl;
otherwise, each write will be executed with the minimum
granularity of flash erase sector size which means a
"sector read back - erase sector - write sector" operation
is performed by using a read cache buffer in heap.
2. O_SYNC. When this flag is passed in, we assume that the
flash has been erased in advance and no erasure operation
will be performed internally within ftl. O_SYNC will take
effect only when both O_DIRECT and O_SYNC are passed in
simultaneously.
3. For uniformity, we remapped the mount flag in mount.h and
unified it with the open flag in fcntl.h. The repetitive
parts of their definitions were reused, and the remaining
part of the mount flag redefine to the unused bit of open
flags.

This patch is a rework of the NuttX file descriptor implementation. The
goal is two-fold:
1. Improve POSIX compliance. The old implementation tied file description
to inode only, not the file struct. POSIX however dictates otherwise.
2. Fix a bug with descriptor duplication (dup2() and dup3()). There is
an existing race condition with this POSIX API that currently results
in a kernel side crash.
The crash occurs when a partially open / closed file descriptor is
duplicated. The reason for the crash is that even if the descriptor is
closed, the file might still be in use by the kernel (due to e.g. ongoing
write to file). The open file data is changed by file_dup3() and this
causes a crash in the device / drivers themselves as they lose access to
the inode and private data.
The fix is done by separating struct file into file and file descriptor
structs. The file struct can live on even if the descriptor is closed,
fixing the crash. This also fixes the POSIX issue, as two descriptors
can now point to the same file.

Most tools used for compliance and SBOM generation use SPDX identifiers
This change brings us a step closer to an easy SBOM generation.

currently, nuttx implements readv/writev on the top of read/write.
while it might work for the simplest cases, it's broken by design.
for example, it's impossible to make it work correctly for files
which need to preserve data boundaries without allocating a single
contiguous buffer. (udp socket, some character devices, etc)
this change is a start of the migration to a better design.
that is, implement read/write on the top of readv/writev.
to avoid a single huge change, following things will NOT be done in
this commit:
* fix actual bugs caused by the original readv-based-on-read design.
(cf. https://github.com/apache/nuttx/pull/12674)
* adapt filesystems/drivers to actually benefit from the new interface.
(except a few trivial examples)
* eventually retire the old interface.
* retire read/write syscalls. implement them in libc instead.
* pread/pwrite/preadv/pwritev (except the introduction of struct uio,
which is a preparation to back these variations with the new
interface.)
Summary:
Reference https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/open.2.html
EISDIR pathname refers to a directory and the access requested
involved writing (that is, O_WRONLY or O_RDWR is set).

The spawn proxy thread is a special existence in NuttX, usually some developers
spend a lot of time on stack overflow of spawn proxy thread:
https://github.com/apache/nuttx/issues/9046https://github.com/apache/nuttx/pull/9081
In order to avoid similar issues, this PR will remove spawn proxy thread to simplify
the process of task/posix_spawn().
1. Postpone the related processing of spawn file actions until after task_init()
2. Delete the temporary thread of spawn proxy and related global variables

NULL inode passed to files_allocate doesn't mark file struct in the
allocated state, so other threads which invovle in file allocation
(e.g. open or dup) may allocate the same file struct again.

* Simplify EINTR/ECANCEL error handling
1. Add semaphore uninterruptible wait function
2 .Replace semaphore wait loop with a single uninterruptible wait
3. Replace all sem_xxx to nxsem_xxx
* Unify the void cast usage
1. Remove void cast for function because many place ignore the returned value witout cast
2. Replace void cast for variable with UNUSED macro
many locations: Change occurences of open() followed by file_detach() to file_open(). Change most non-controversion calls to open() to nx_open().
fs/inode/fs_fileopen.c: Flesh out file_open() with some interim, placeholder logic.
fs/inode/fs_fileopen.c: Add a framework for a file_open() implementation (no real logic in place yet).
fs/vfs/fs_open.c: Add nx_open() which is the same as open() except that it does not create a cancellation point nor does it modify the errno variable.
