Static Thread methods and signal methods have been deprecated. Remove
all references in the main code, and most of the tests. Some tests of
the deprecated APIs themselves remain.
The thread stack size was restricted due to some boards have really limited RAM sizes,
and out of heap memory on multiple threads tests.
The side effect was on the debug profile build, the tests will get stack overflow.
We need the build the test with debug profile in order to do the code coverage analysis.
So increased the thread stack size on FastModel targets.
Since target specific ticker drivers are not ready also features which uses ticker in upper layers may not work correctly and tests for these features.
We need to disable also failing higher level ticker related tests (by adding check if DEVICE_USTICKER symbol is available and raise #error [NOT_SUPPORTED] if not).
"malloc" test is used a simple thread that executes only malloc and free, but it seems that there is a difference in the stack used between Cortex-A and Cortex-M.
As a result of check, in Cortex-A, program aborts because of the lack of stack when THREAD_STACK_SIZE is 256, workes properly when THREAD_STACK_SIZE is 512 at least. Since it seems that the definition processing of "DEFAULT_STACK_SIZE" was gone from Mbed OS by updating CMSIS5/RTX5, I setted 512 directly for Cortex-A.
Reduce RAM consumption so all tests can still be built when using
CMSIS/RTX5. Also reduce clutter by removing the per target stack size
defines in the tests.
