These calls are sent to VFS, and thus should be prefixed with VFS_.
Clean up the protocol and PM's main function a bit.
Since the protocol is substantially big and different from normal VFS

The getsysinfo(2), getrusage(2), and svrctl(2) calls used the same
call number to different services. Since we want to give each service
its own call number ranges, this is no longer tenable. This patch
introduces per-service call numbers for these calls.
Note that the remainder of the COMMON_ range is left intact, as these
the remaining requests in it are processed by SEF and thus server-
agnostic. The range should really be prefixed with SEF_ now.

When a process forks, VFS is informed on behalf of the child. This is
correct, because otherwise signals to the new child could get lost.
However, that means that the parent is not blocked from being killed
by a signal while the child is blocked on this VFS call. As a result,
by the time that the VFS reply comes in, the parent may already be
dead, and the child may thus have been assigned a new parent: INIT.
Previously, PM would blindly reply to the parent when the VFS reply
for the fork came in. Thus, it could end up sending a reply to INIT,
even though INIT did not issue the fork(2) call. This could end up
satisfying a different call from INIT (typically waitpid(2)) and then
cause an error when that other call was complete.
It would be possible to set VFS_CALL on both forking parent and child.
This patch instead adds a flag (NEW_PARENT) to note that a process's
parent has changed during a VFS call.

- all TTY-related exceptions have now been merged into the regular
code paths, allowing non-TTY drivers to expose TTY-like devices;
- as part of this, CTTY_MAJOR is now fully managed by VFS instead of
being an ugly stepchild of the TTY driver;
- device styles have become completely obsolete, support for them has
been removed throughout the system; same for device flags, which had
already become useless a while ago;

This single function allows copying file descriptors from and to
processes, and closing a previously copied remote file descriptor.
This function replaces the five FD-related UDS backcalls. While it
limits the total number of in-flight file descriptors to OPEN_MAX,
this change greatly improves crash recovery support of UDS, since all
in-flight file descriptors will be closed instead of keeping them
open indefinitely (causing VFS to crash on system shutdown). With the
new copyfd call, UDS becomes simpler, and the concept of filps is no
longer exposed outside of VFS.
This patch also moves the checkperms(2) stub into libminlib, thus
fully abstracting away message details of VFS communication from UDS.

This commit separates the low-level keyboard driver from TTY, putting
it in a separate driver (PCKBD). The commit also separates management
of raw input devices from TTY, and puts it in a separate server
(INPUT). All keyboard and mouse input from hardware is sent by drivers
to the INPUT server, which either sends it to a process that has
opened a raw input device, or otherwise forwards it to TTY for
standard processing.
Design by Dirk Vogt. Prototype by Uli Kastlunger.
Additional changes made to the prototype:
- the event communication is now based on USB HID codes; all input
drivers have to use USB codes to describe events;
- all TTY keymaps have been converted to USB format, with the effect
that a single keymap covers all keys; there is no (static) escaped
keymap anymore;
- further keymap tweaks now allow remapping of literally all keys;
- input device renumbering and protocol rewrite;
- INPUT server rewrite, with added support for cancel and select;
- PCKBD reimplementation, including PC/AT-to-USB translation;
- support for manipulating keyboard LEDs has been added;
- keyboard and mouse multiplexer devices have been added to INPUT,
primarily so that an X server need only open two devices;
- a new "libinputdriver" library abstracts away protocol details from
input drivers, and should be used by all future input drivers;
- both INPUT and PCKBD can be restarted;
- TTY is now scheduled by KERNEL, so that it won't be punished for
running a lot; without this, simply running "yes" on the console
kills the system;
- the KIOCBELL IOCTL has been moved to /dev/console;
- support for the SCANCODES termios setting has been removed;
- obsolete keymap compression has been removed;
- the obsolete Olivetti M24 keymap has been removed.

Most systems provide the full version number in the
'release' field and the kernel version in 'version'.
Minix used to split the full version number between
release and version which caused problems for pkgsrc
and other applications. This patch brings Minix's
uname in line with other systems such as NetBSD.
It also brings the getty banner in line with NetBSD.
Old Minix uname:
sysname->Minix
nodename->10.0.2.15
release->3
version->2.1
machine->i686
New Minix uname:

Not all services involved in block I/O go through VM to access the
blocks they need. As a result, the blocks in VM may become stale,
possibly causing corruption when the stale copy is restored by a
service that does go through VM later on. This patch restores support
for forgetting cached blocks that belong to a particular device, and
makes the relevant file systems use this functionality 1) when
requested by VFS through REQ_FLUSH, and 2) upon unmount.

Previously, VFS would reopen a character device after a driver crash
if the associated file descriptor was opened with the O_REOPEN flag.
This patch removes support for this feature. The code was complex,
full of uncovered corner cases, and hard to test. Moreover, it did not
actually hide the crash from user applications: they would get an
error code to indicate that something went wrong, and have to decide
based on the nature of the underlying device how to continue.
- remove support for O_REOPEN, and make playwave(1) reopen its device;
- remove support for the DEV_REOPEN protocol message;
- remove all code in VFS related to reopening character devices;
- no longer change VFS filp reference count and FD bitmap upon filp
invalidation; instead, make get_filp* fail all calls on invalidated
FDs except when obtained with the locktype VNODE_OPCL which is used
by close_fd only;
- remove the VFS fproc file descriptor bitmap entirely, returning to
the situation that a FD is in use if its slot points to a filp; use
FILP_CLOSED as single means of marking a filp as invalidated.

I/O control requests now come with the endpoint of the user process
that initiated the ioctl(2) call. It is stored in a new BDEV_USER
field, which is an alias for BDEV_FLAGS. The contents of this field
are to be used only in highly specific situations. It should be
preserved (not replaced!) by services that forward IOCTL requests,
and may be set to NONE for service-initiated IOCTL requests.

Previously, reading from or writing to a character device would not
update the file position on the corresponding filp object. Performing
this update correctly is not trivial: during and after the I/O
operation, the filp object must not be locked. Ideally, read/write
requests on a filp that is already involved in a read/write operation,
should be queued. For now, we optimistically update the file position
at the start of the I/O; this works under the assumptions listed in
the corresponding comment.

POSIX states that when interrupted, partially successful pipe
operations should return the partial result rather than EINTR. VFS
previously wouldn't look at the partial result, and not clear it

The main purpose of this patch is to fix handling of unpause calls
from PM while another call is ongoing. The solution to this problem
sparked a full revision of the threading model, consisting of a large
number of related changes:
- all active worker threads are now always associated with a process,
and every process has at most one active thread working for it;
- the process lock is always held by a process's worker thread;
- a process can now have both normal work and postponed PM work
associated to it;
- timer expiry and non-postponed PM work is done from the main thread;
- filp garbage collection is done from a thread associated with VFS;
- reboot calls from PM are now done from a thread associated with PM;
- the DS events handler is protected from starting multiple threads;
- support for a system worker thread has been removed;
- the deadlock recovery thread has been replaced by a parameter to the
worker_start() function; the number of worker threads has
consequently been increased by one;
- saving and restoring of global but per-thread variables is now
centralized in worker_suspend() and worker_resume(); err_code is now
saved and restored in all cases;
- the concept of jobs has been removed, and job_m_in now points to a
message stored in the worker thread structure instead;
- the PM lock has been removed;
- the separate exec lock has been replaced by a lock on the VM
process, which was already being locked for exec calls anyway;
- PM_UNPAUSE is now processed as a postponed PM request, from a thread
associated with the target process;
- the FP_DROP_WORK flag has been removed, since it is no longer more
than just an optimization and only applied to processes operating on
a pipe when getting killed;
- assignment to "fp" now takes place only when obtaining new work in
the main thread or a worker thread, when resuming execution of a
thread, and in the special case of exiting processes during reboot;
- there are no longer special cases where the yield() call is used to
force a thread to run.

The T_DUMPCORE implementation was not only broken - it would currently
produce a coredump of the tracer process rather than the traced
process - but also deeply flawed, and fixing it would require serious
alteration of PM's internal state machine. It should be possible to
implement the same functionality in userland, and that is now the
suggested way forward. For now, also remove the (identical) utilities
using T_DUMPCORE: dumpcore(1) and gcore(1).

Previously, processing of some replies coming from character drivers
could block on locks, and therefore, such processing was done from
threads that were associated to the character driver process. The
hidden consequence of this was that if all threads were in use, VFS
could drop replies coming from the driver. This patch returns VFS to
a situation where the replies from character drivers are processed
instantly from the main thread, by removing the situations that may
cause VFS to block while handling those replies.
- change the locking model for select, so that it will never block
on any processing that happens after the select call has been set
up, in particular processing of character driver select replies;
- clearly mark all select routines that may never block;
- protect against race conditions in do_select as result of the
locking that still does happen there (as is required for pipes);
- also handle select timers from the main thread;
- move processing of character driver replies into device.c.

These days, DEV_OPEN calls to character drivers block the calling
thread until completion or failure, and thus never return SUSPEND to
the caller. The same already applied to BDEV_OPEN calls to block
drivers. It has thus become impossible for a process to enter a state
of being blocked on a device open call.
There is currently no support for restarting device open calls to
restarted character drivers. This support was present in the _DOPEN
logic, but was already no longer triggering. In the future, this case
should be handled by the thread performing the open request.
