[PATCH] c-user: Add self-contained objects chapter

[Cudmore, Alan P. (GSFC-5820)]

I like the idea of higher performance locking and the reduced need for error checking. We have had internal debates on how much error checking needs to be done when locking and unlocking a mutex for a shared data structure. 

Are these new APIs in addition to the classic RTEMS APIs for similar objects?

Since there are performance benefits, is there any reason to use the classic API over the self-contained objects?

Finally, the ticket referenced in some of the patches (2843) has a milestone of 6.1. Are the self-contained objects going in 5.1? 

Thanks!
Alan
