+ Added xTaskCatchUpTicks() which corrects the tick count value after the application code has held interrupts disabled for an extended period.
+ Updated the xTaskResumeAll() implementation so it uses the new xTaskCatchUpTicks() function mentioned above to unwind ticks that were pended while the scheduler was suspended.
+ Various maintenance on the message buffer, stream buffer and abort delay demos.
+ Change type of uxPendedTicks from UBaseType_t to TickType_t to ensure it has same type as variables it is compared to, and therefore also rename the variable xPendingTicks.
+ Correct spelling mistake within a comment that was common to all the ARMv7-M ports.
Introduce configSTACK_DEPTH_TYPE so the application writer change the type used to specify a stack size from uint16_t to whatever they like. Defaults to uint16_t if not defined.
Introduce configINITIAL_TICK_COUNT to allow users to start the tick count at something other than 0. Used for testing, but overflows can be better tested by setting configUSE_16_BIT_TICKS to 1.
Split xQueueGenericReceive() into xQueueReceive(), xQueuePeek() and xQueueSemaphoreTake() as the first step in refactoring xQueueGenericReceive().
Add Cortex-M3 port layer for Code Composer Studio - previously there was only a Cortex-M4F port.
Introduce configPRE_SUPPRESS_TICKS_AND_SLEEP_PROCESSING() to allow applications to prevent portSUPPRESS_TICKS_AND_SLEEP() being called. Previously the portPRE_SLEEP_PROCESSING() macro could only be used to abort entry into sleep time after clocks had been re-programmed for the distant wake time.
