whenever sys_arch_mbox_wait() and sys_arch_sem_wait() get a message or
semaphore immediately. Updated documentation for this change.
Unix port and Coldfire port have been updated.

If the timeout argument is non-zero, the return value is the amount
of time spent waiting for the semaphore to be signaled. If the
semaphore wasn't signaled within the specified time, the return
value is zero. If the thread didn't have to wait for the semaphore
(i.e., it was already signaled), care must be taken to ensure that
the function does not return a zero value since this is used to
indicate that a timeout occured. A suitable way to implement this is
to check if the time spent waiting is zero and if so, the value 1 is
returned.
If the timeout argument is non-zero, the return value is the number of
milliseconds spent waiting for the semaphore to be signaled. If the
semaphore wasn't signaled within the specified time, the return value is
0xffffffff. If the thread didn't have to wait for the semaphore (i.e., it
was already signaled), the function may return zero.
Notice that lwIP implements a function with a similar name,
sys_sem_wait(), that uses the sys_arch_sem_wait() function.
