sh: add sleazy FPU optimization

sh port of the sLeAZY-fpu feature currently implemented for some architectures
such us i386.

Right now the SH kernel has a 100% lazy fpu behaviour.
This is of course great for applications that have very sporadic or no FPU use.
However for very frequent FPU users...  you take an extra trap every context
switch.
The patch below adds a simple heuristic to this code: after 5 consecutive
context switches of FPU use, the lazy behavior is disabled and the context
gets restored every context switch.
After 256 switches, this is reset and the 100% lazy behavior is returned.

Tests with LMbench showed no regression.
I saw a little improvement due to the prefetching (~2%).

The tests below also show that, with this sLeazy patch, indeed,
the number of FPU exceptions is reduced.
To test this. I hacked the lat_ctx LMBench to use the FPU a little more.
