Disallow unprivileged critical sections with MPU wrappers v2 (#1427)
When using MPU wrappers version 2 (configUSE_MPU_WRAPPERS_V1 == 0),
portRAISE_PRIVILEGE() is a no-op because the portSVC_RAISE_PRIVILEGE
handler is compiled only for MPU wrappers version 1. As a result, an
unprivileged task that calls taskENTER_CRITICAL() does not actually raise
its privilege, so the subsequent BASEPRI write is ignored by the hardware
and the critical section silently fails to mask interrupts. This produces
latent, hard-to-debug faults.

configALLOW_UNPRIVILEGED_CRITICAL_SECTIONS is therefore not supported with
MPU wrappers version 2. In the ARMv7-M MPU ports:

- When the option is left undefined under v2, default it to 0 instead of 1
  so the dangerous default configuration is safe.
- When the option is explicitly set to 1 under v2, raise a compile-time
  #error so the unsupported configuration is rejected loudly rather than
  failing silently at run time.

Behaviour for MPU wrappers version 1 is unchanged.

Each real time kernel port consists of three files that contain the core kernel
components and are common to every port, and one or more files that are
specific to a particular microcontroller and/or compiler.


+ The FreeRTOS/Source/Portable/MemMang directory contains the five sample
memory allocators as described on the https://www.FreeRTOS.org WEB site.

+ The other directories each contain files specific to a particular
microcontroller or compiler, where the directory name denotes the compiler
specific files the directory contains.



For example, if you are interested in the [compiler] port for the [architecture]
microcontroller, then the port specific files are contained in
FreeRTOS/Source/Portable/[compiler]/[architecture] directory.  If this is the
only port you are interested in then all the other directories can be
ignored.
