score: Add per scheduler instance maximum priority

The priority values are only valid within a scheduler instance. Thus,
the maximum priority value must be defined per scheduler instance. The
first scheduler instance defines PRIORITY_MAXIMUM. This implies that
RTEMS_MAXIMUM_PRIORITY and POSIX_SCHEDULER_MAXIMUM_PRIORITY are only
valid for threads of the first scheduler instance. Further
API/implementation changes are necessary to fix this.

Update #2556.

26 *  @ingroup Score
27 *
28 *  This handler encapsulates functionality which is used to manage
29 *  thread priorities.  At the SuperCore level 256 priority levels
30 *  are supported with lower numbers representing logically more important
31 *  threads.  The priority level 0 is reserved for internal RTEMS use.
32 *  Typically it is assigned to threads which defer internal RTEMS
33 *  actions from an interrupt to thread level to improve interrupt response.
34 *  Priority level 255 is assigned to the IDLE thread and really should not
35 *  be used by application threads.  The default IDLE thread implementation
36 *  is an infinite "branch to self" loop which never yields to other threads
37 *  at the same priority.
