spin_lock_check already returned bool in the source file but not in the
header. With some toolchains that causes an error, as it should.
Because it and related functions all essentially return a bool, we can
use this opportunity to change them.

Replace the test-and-set spinlock implementation with ticket locks
in order to get fairness (in form of FIFO order).
The implementation uses a 32-bit wide struct, which consists of
two 16-bit counters (owner and next). This is inspired by similar
spinlock implementations on other architectures.
This allows that the code works for both, RV32 and RV64.
