 * Name: task_delete
 *
 * Description:
 *   This function causes a specified task to cease to exist. Its  stack and
 *   TCB will be deallocated.  This function is the companion to task_create().
 *
 *   The logic in this function only deletes non-running tasks.  If the 'pid'
 *   parameter refers to to the currently runing task, then processing is
 *   redirected to exit().
 *
 *   Control will still be returned to task_delete() after the exit() logic
 *   finishes.  In fact, this function is the final function called all task
 *   termination sequences.  Here are all possible exit scenarios:
 *
 *   - pthread_exit().  Calls exit()
 *   - exit(). Calls _exit()
 *   - _exit().  Calls task_deletecurrent() making the currently running task
 *     non-running then calls task_delete() to terminate the non-running
 *     task.
 *   - task_delete()
 *
 * Inputs:
 *   pid - The task ID of the task to delete.  A pid of zero
 *         signifies the calling task.
 *
 * Return Value:
 *   OK on success; or ERROR on failure
 *
 *   This function can fail if the provided pid does not correspond to a
 *   task (errno is not set)
 *
