- arch: posix: implement the IRQ pending-state operations
- drivers: timer: nrf_rtc: use portable IRQ pending API
- drivers: serial: nrfx_uart: use portable IRQ pending API
- drivers: usb: nrf: use portable IRQ pending API
- drivers: entropy: nrf5: use portable IRQ pending API
- Bluetooth: controller: nrf5: use portable IRQ pending API
- boards: qemu: cortex_m0: use portable IRQ pending API
Wire arch_irq_set_pending(), arch_irq_clear_pending() and arch_irq_is_pending() to the posix_sw_*_pending_IRQ() interface that every POSIX-arch board (native_sim, the bsim boards) implements, and select ARCH_HAS_IRQ_PENDING_OPS. The set and clear entry points already existed; the pending-state query is new and is backed by the native simulator's interrupt controller status on both board families. This lets drivers shared between real hardware and the simulated boards -- the Nordic timer, entropy, USB and Bluetooth controller code in particular -- use the portable k_irq_*_pending() API instead of CMSIS NVIC calls that the simulation boards have to emulate.

Replace direct NVIC_SetPendingIRQ()/NVIC_ClearPendingIRQ() calls with k_irq_set_pending()/k_irq_clear_pending(). The portable API is backed by the NVIC on the Nordic hardware targets and by the POSIX-arch board interface on the simulated bsim targets, so the CMSIS emulation layer is no longer involved.
