feat(lifecycle): Allow core 1 to disable interrupts during API calls
When interrupts are disabled during API calls on core 1, we can only trigger a core 1 reset when there is no API call ongoing. This means that the lifecycle machinery needs to allow any running API calls to complete before it has a chance to see its reset interrupt delivered. This is complicated because we cannot synchronize on core 1 triggering an API call - the best we can do is stop the dispatcher, check whether our reset interrupt was delivered, and if not, give it another chance to process an API call. Additionally, "give it another chance to process an API call" means that the IDLE task must run, because this is currently a prerequisite to scheduling the dispatcher (see [1]). The only way to facilitate this is with a sleep that is long enough that it will eventually let core 0 go idle. It seems that an 8 tick delay does the job quite fine. Thus, implement a busy loop which provides the above requirements and with that makes Epicardium prepared for payloads which perform API calls with interrupts disabled.
