arch/riscv: Use arch_switch() for context swap
Enable `arch_switch()` as preparation for SMP support. This patch
doesn't try to keep support for old style context swap - only switch
based swap is supported, to keep things simple.
A fair amount of refactoring was done in this patch, specially regarding
the code that decides what to do about the ISR. In RISC-V, ECALL
instructions are used to signalize several events, such as user space
system calls, forced syscall, IRQ offload, return from syscall and
context switch. All those handled by the ISR - which also handles
interrupts. After refactor, this "dispatching" step is done at the
beginning of ISR (just after saving generic registers).
As with other platforms, the thread object itself is used as the thread
"switch handle" for the context swap.
