This replaces SDL threads with real cooperative threads, which are less cpu intensive and allow priority scheduling.
The backend for context switching is dependant on the host (sigaltstack/longjmp on Unix, Fibers on Windows).
configure has options to force or disallow SDL threads.

If the SDL timer resolution was higher than 10ms it would have restarted the timer after 1ms, but it made no difference.

- Refactor the program startup. main() is now in main.c like on target, and the implicit application thread will now act as our main thread (previously a separate one was created for this in thread initialization).
This is part of Rockbox as an application and is the first step to make an application port from the uisimulator. In a further step the sim bits from the sdl build will be separated out.
