[riot-notifications] [RIOT-OS/RIOT] Renode improvements (#15427)

[Philipp-Alexander Blum]

### Contribution description

Some improvements for the renode integration. Especially in context of the [RIOT OS IDE](https://github.com/Citrullin/RIOT-OS-IDE). Eventually the IDE contains everything someone needs to start with developing an application in RIOT.
No extras needed. In order to make this possible, I need to change the renode implementation. 
Overall this is still a work in progress. 
Known issues:
- [No such command or device: next_value](https://github.com/renode/renode/issues/152)
- `telnet localhost 3456` seems not to work, even though the UART should be exposed via the [socket terminal](https://renode.readthedocs.io/en/latest/host-integration/uart.html#socket-terminal) on the nrf52840dk. 

### Testing procedure

With RIOT OS snap package: 

1. Clone the [RIOT OS IDE](https://github.com/Citrullin/RIOT-OS-IDE). 
2. Change into the cloned directory. Create a snap with `snapcraft`
3. Install the generated snap with `snap install --devmode riot-os-ide_0.1_[ARCHITECTURE].snap`
4. Change into an example application in RIOT
5. Execute `RENODE=/snap/bin/riot-os-ide.renode BOARD=nrf52840dk make emulate`

With global renode installation:
1. Change into an example application in RIOT
2. Execute `RENODE=/snap/bin/riot-os-ide.renode BOARD=nrf52840dk make emulate`


### Issues/PRs references
Contains workarounds for [#144 in renode](https://github.com/renode/renode/issues/144). 

@basilfx Does this workaround work for you too? Or do I need to change something?
@chrysn Since you also commit on [EFM2RIOT](https://github.com/basilfx/EFM2RIOT/tree/feature/simplify), you are might be interested in this as well.
