Introduce the non-standard pthread_parallel_create() system call
and re-write the <fft> and <sort> applications to improve the
intrinsic paralelism in applications.

41// This static function is called twice by the sys_exec() function :
42// - to register the main() arguments (args) in the exec_info structure.
43// - to register the environment variables (envs) in the exec_info structure.
44// In both cases the input is an array of string pointers in user space,
45// and a set of strings in user space.
46// We allocate one physical page to store a kernel copy of the array of pointers,
47// we allocate one or several physical pages to store the strings themselve,
48// and register these buffers and the number of strings in the exec_info structure.
49// The max number of strings is 1024 (for both args and envs). The numbers of pages
50// to store the (args) and (envs) strings are configuration parameters.

54// @ u_pointers : array of pointers on the strings (in user space).
55// @ return 0 if success / non-zero if too many strings or no more memory.
