Scheduler refactor Pt. 1

* Simplifies scheduling logic, specifically regarding thread status. It should be much clearer which statuses are valid
for a thread at any given point in the system.
* Removes dead code from thread.cpp.
* Moves the implementation of resetting a ThreadContext to the corresponding core's implementation.

Other changes:
* Fixed comments in arm interfaces.
* Updated comments in thread.cpp
* Removed confusing, useless, functions like MakeReady() and ChangeStatus() from thread.cpp.
* Removed stack_size from Thread. In the CTR kernel, the thread's stack would be allocated before thread creation.
