Rich Felker e24984efd5 clean up i386 atomics for new atomics framework
this commit mostly makes consistent things like spacing, function
ordering in atomic_arch.h, argument names, use of volatile, etc. the
fake 64-bit and/or atomics are also removed because the shared
atomic.h does a better job of implementing them; it avoids making two
atomic memory accesses when only one 32-bit half needs to be touched.

no major overhaul is needed or possible because x86 actually has
native versions of all the usual atomic operations, rather than using
ll/sc or needing cas loops.

Rich Felker 1315596b51 refactor internal atomic.h
rather than having each arch provide its own atomic.h, there is a new
shared atomic.h in src/internal which pulls arch-specific definitions
from arc/$(ARCH)/atomic_arch.h. the latter can be extremely minimal,
defining only a_cas or new ll/sc type primitives which the shared
atomic.h will use to construct everything else.

this commit avoids making heavy changes to the individual archs'
atomic implementations. definitions which are identical or
near-identical to what the new shared atomic.h would produce have been
removed, but otherwise the changes made are just hooking up the
arch-specific files to the new infrastructure. major changes to take
advantage of the new system will come in subsequent commits.
