Revert "arch: deprecate _current"

Mostly a revert of commit b1def71 ("arch: deprecate `_current`").

This commit was part of PR #80716 whose initial purpose was about providing
an architecture specific optimization for _current. The actual deprecation
was sneaked in later on without proper discussion.

The Zephyr core always used _current before and that was fine. It is quite
prevalent as well and the alternative is proving rather verbose.
Furthermore, as a concept, the "current thread" is not something that is
necessarily architecture specific. Therefore the primary abstraction
should not carry the arch_ prefix.

Hence this revert.
