Call underlying HAL implementation to enter critical section/disable interrupts
before incrementing the global critical section counter.
Modify HAL implementations to track first entrances to the critical section and
only update the saved state on first enter.
- Define header functions for Critical Section HAL API
- hal_critical_section_enter()
- hal_critical_section_exit()
- Add weak default implementation for HAL API. The default implementation
matches the previous behaviour stored in mbed_critical:
- The first call to enter a critical section stores the state of interrupts
before disabling and each successive call re-disables interrupts.
- The last call (non-nested) will restore the IRQ state that was set on the
enter to the critical section. Nested calls are ignored.
- Add function 'core_util_in_critical_section' to User facing API to determine
if the program is currently in a critical section, instead of depending on
'core_util_interrupts_enabled'.
