[Feature Request] Standardize Function Naming Conventions

[HTRamsey]

The function naming conventions should be more universal, such as with capitalization in the case of FreeRTOS_SignalSocket vs FreeRTOS_closesocket. I would suggest renaming as needed for next major version and include macros to link to the old names.

Also there are some functions such as xSocketSetSocketID/pvSocketGetSocketID which state are only used by the user but don't have the API naming convention.

Thank you @HTRamsey for your suggestion. We will keep it in mind for next major release.

The function FreeRTOS_SignalSocket is using Camel case because there is not a corresponding signalsocket(), although the function signal() is quite similar: it can interrupt an API.

All BSD functions are in small letters and preceded by FreeRTOS_, such as FreeRTOS_bind().
