+ Added mtCOVERAGE_TEST_DELAY() macro to facilitate getting better code coverage during testing.
+ Update prvNotifyQueueSetContainer() so it does not call xTaskRemoveFromEventList() if it is called from an interrupt, and the queue is locked.
Demo apps:
Added QueueSetPolling.c/h demo/test functions.
+ Added vTimerSetTimerID() to compliment vTimerGetTimerID(). Now the timer ID can be used as timer local storage.
+ Updated comments and added some additional assert() calls.
Win32 port:
+ Some changes to allow easier 64-bit builds
PIC24/dsPIC port:
+ Added NOP after disable interrupt instruction.
+ Fix a few compiler warnings.
+ Add TickType_t specific critical sections so critical sections are not used when accessing the tick count in cases where the access is atomic (32-bit tick count, 32-bit architecture).
Remove obsolete extern declaration of vTaskSwitchContext() from the MPX430X IAR portmacro.h (other older portmacro.h header files contain the same declaration).
Replace #define types with typedefs.
Rename all typedefs to have a _t extension.
Add #defines to automatically convert old FreeRTOS specific types to their new names (with the _t).
Introduce xPortRunning variable into Win32 simulator port layer.
Add port optimised task selection macro for the GCC Win32 port layer (the MSVC version has had one for a while).
Ensure the event list item value does not get modified by code in tasks.c (priority inheritance, or priority change) when it is in use by the event group implementation.
Add a task pre-delete hook to allow the insertion of any port specific clean up when a task is deleted.
Increase use of 'const' qualifiers.
Add vPortCloseRunningThread() into the Win32 port layer to attempt to allow Windows threads to be closed more gracefully when a task deletes itself.
