Subject: [PATCH 01/16] feat: update the RUN_QUEUE init, add the idle task, and
 update main to test

Change the BUFFER static to RUN_QUEUE static using a config static for
max size, add a basic idle task, static, no change possible for the dev
calling it, and update the main function to create task and test. Need
sleep primitive to continue on this branch

+## Idle task
+
+The idle task is used to ensure that the kernel as always at least one task able to run.
+This task is created at the lowest priority to ensure it does not use any CPU time if there are higher priority application tasks in the run queue.
+It is not possible to update the idle task, it's a static defined task. 
+
 ## Invariants
 
 - The task's function must never return.
