Zephyr isn't ready to handle interrupts yet, until the
threading/scheduler are set up and we make our first context switch.
This was a semi-hidden bug: only the timer interrupt would actually
get unmasked before the system was ready, and obviously would never
have time to fire a tick before the system completed initialization.
But a combination of system load and a new version of Qemu (which
seems to be more sensitive to non-deterministic timing glitchery) has
made this visible. About 2-3% of the time when run under a full
sanitycheck, the qemu process will get swapped away for long enough
that the tick timer expires before _Cstart() has reached
enable_multithreading().
It looks like the original code was cut and pasted from another
implementation, which was expected to call into an "application"
main() routine that wanted interrupts ready.
Fixes#11182
(Note also that this code is not used for ESP-32, which has its own
startup path)
