Fix issue in and simplify the xTaskRemoveFromUnorderedEventList() function. The function is new to the V8 release candidates so does not effect official released code.
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).
Add portYIELD_FROM_ISR() macros to Cortex-M ports. The new macro just calls the exiting portEND_SWITCHING_ISR() macro.
Remove code from the MSVC port layer that was left over from a previous implementation and become obsolete.
Changed eTaskStateGet() to eTaskGetState() and added #define to ensure backward compatibility.
Added configEXPECTED_IDLE_TIME_BEFORE_SLEEP definition - was previously hard coded to 2.
Slight change to the default CM3 tickless sleep function to allow the idle time to be set to zero in the pre-sleep processing macro.
Changed stack alignment for the FreeRTOS-MPU port to ensure it didn't trigger the assert() in the generic create function.
Replaced the #error that traps configMAX_SYSCALL_INTERRUPT_PRIORITY being set to 0 with a configASSERT() for GCC Cortex-M3/4 ports as the #error does not work if configMAX_SYSCALL_INTERRUPT_PRIORITY includes any casting. Not a problem for other compilers as they cannot have casting anyway as that would break the assembly code.
