docs: put atomic*.txt and memory-barriers.txt into the core-api book

These files describe part of the core API, but have never been converted to
RST due to ... let's say local oppposition.  So, create a set of
special-purpose wrappers to ..include these files into a separate page so
that they can be a part of the htmldocs build.  Then link them into the
core-api manual and remove them from the "staging" dumping ground.
