This allows us to write things like this:
message m;
m.m_notify.interrupts = new_value;
or
message *mp;
mp->m_notify.interrupts = new_value;
The shorthands macro have been adapted for the new scheme, and will be
kept as long as we have generic messages being used.

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.

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.

* Removed startup code patches in lib/csu regarding kernel to userland
ABI.
* Aligned stack layout on NetBSD stack layout.
* Generate valid stack pointers instead of offsets by taking into account
_minix_kerninfo->kinfo->user_sp.
* Refactored stack generation, by moving part of execve in two
functions {minix_stack_params(), minix_stack_fill()} and using them
in execve(), rs and vm.
* Changed load offset of rtld (ld.so) to:
execi.args.stack_high - execi.args.stack_size - 0xa00000
which is 10MB below the main executable stack.

The bug in the offset correction code for the 'shrink region from
below' case can easily case an assert(foundregion->offset == offset)
to trigger (if the blocks are touched afterwards, e.g. on fork())
as the offsets become wrong. This commit is a fix & regression test.

The memory-mapped files implementation (mmap() etc.) is implemented with
the help of the filesystems using the in-VM FS cache. Filesystems tell it
about all cached blocks and their metadata. Metadata is: device offset and,
if any (and known), inode number and in-inode offset. VM can then map in
requested memory-mapped file blocks, and request them if necessary.
A limitation of this system is that filesystem block sizes that are not
a multiple of the VM system (and VM hardware) page size are not possible;
we can't map blocks in partially. (We can copy, but then the benefits of
mapping and sharing the physical pages is gone.) So until before this
commit various pieces of caching code assumed page size multiple
blocksizes. This isn't strictly necessary as long as mmap() needn't be
supported on that FS.
This change allows the in-FS cache code (libminixfs) to allocate any-sized
blocks, and will not interact with the VM cache for non-pagesize-multiple
blocks. In that case it will also signal requestors, by failing 'peek'
requests, that mmap() should not be supported on this FS. VM and VFS
will then gracefully fail all file-mapping mmap() calls, and exec() will
fall back to copying executable blocks instead of mmap()ping executables.
As a result, 3 diagnostics that signal file-mapped mmap()s failing
(hitherto an unusual occurence) are disabled, as ld.so does file-mapped
mmap()s to map in objects it needs. On FSes not supporting it this situation
is legitimate and shouldn't cause so much noise. ld.so will revert to its own
minix-specific allocate+copy style of starting executables if mmap()s fail.

When we start using a new pagetable (for a new process)
the last part is to ensure the pagetable itself can be
accessed by VM. This is done in pt_bind by updating
the "pagetable of pagetables" and we want this mapping
to match other mappings to the l1 pagetable.

The VM server now manages its call masks such that all user processes
share the same call mask. As a result, an update for the call mask of
any user process will apply to all user processes. This is similar to
the privilege infrastructure employed by the kernel, and may serve as
a template for similar fine-grained restrictions in other servers.
Concretely, this patch fixes the problem of "service edit init" not
applying the given VM call mask to user processes started from RC
scripts during system startup.
In addition, this patch makes RS set a proper VM call mask for each
recovery script it spawns.

In libexec, split the memory allocation method into cleared and
non-cleared. Cleared gives zeroed memory, non-cleared gives 'junk'
memory (that will be overwritten anyway, and so needn't be cleared)
that is faster to get.
Also introduce the 'memmap' method that can be used, if available,
to map code and data from executables into a process using the
third-party mmap() mode.

Primary purpose of change: to support the mmap implementation, VM must
know both (a) about some block metadata for FS cache blocks, i.e.
inode numbers and inode offsets where applicable; and (b) know about
*all* cache blocks, i.e. also of the FS primary caches and not just
the blocks that spill into the secondary one. This changes the
interface and VM data structures.
This change is only for the interface (libminixfs) and VM data
structures; the filesystem code is unmodified, so although the
secondary cache will be used as normal, blocks will not be annotated
with inode information until the FS is modified to provide this
information. Until it is modified, mmap of files will fail gracefully
on such filesystems.
This is indicated to VFS/VM by returning ENOSYS for REQ_PEEK.

Memory types in VM are described by methods. Each mapped region has
a type, and all pages instantiated get that type on creation.
Individual page types has to be able to change though. This commit
changes the code to use the memory types of the individual pages,
where appropriate, instead of just the higher-level region, in case
it has changed. This is needed to e.g. support future copy-on-write
MAP_PRIVATE mmap modes.

Some (backwards-compatible) changes in mmap() call message fields
that allow for a 64-bit offset. minix_mmap() takes an off_t and
minix_mmap64() takes a u64_t. Some mmap() work in VM goes into a
separate function, using the new fields, so that that can be re-used
when files are to be mapped (future commit).

In order to make it more clear that ticks should be used for timers
and realtime should be used for timestamps / displaying the date/time,
getuptime() was renamed to getticks() and getuptime2() was renamed to
getuptime().
Servers, drivers, libraries, tests, etc that use getuptime()/getuptime2()
have been updated. In instances where a realtime was calculated, the
calculation was changed to use realtime.
System calls clock_getres() and clock_gettime() were added to PM/libc.
