Squashed commit of the following:

    This commit backs out most of commit b4747286.  That change was added because sem_wait() would sometimes cause cancellation points inappropriated.  But with these recent changes, nxsem_wait() is used instead and it is not a cancellation point.

    In the OS, all calls to sem_wait() changed to nxsem_wait().  nxsem_wait() does not return errors via errno so each place where nxsem_wait() is now called must not examine the errno variable.

    In all OS functions (not libraries), change sem_wait() to nxsem_wait().  This will prevent the OS from creating bogus cancellation points and from modifying the per-task errno variable.

    sched/semaphore:  Add the function nxsem_wait().  This is a new internal OS interface.  It is functionally equivalent to sem_wait() except that (1) it is not a cancellation point, and (2) it does not set the per-thread errno value on return.
