b6ea15115c kernel: facility for user-visible memory
. map all objects named usermapped_*.o with globally visible
	  pages; usermapped_glo_*.o with the VM 'global' bit on, i.e.
	  permanently in tlb (very scarce resource!)
	. added kinfo, machine, kmessages and loadinfo for a start
	. modified log, tty to make use of the shared messages struct

2fe8fb192f Full switch to clang/ELF. Drop ack. Simplify.
There is important information about booting non-ack images in
docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and
booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the
new boot monitor is recommended.

Changes in this commit:

	. drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support
	. facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor
	  can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING
	. no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries
	. some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases
	. drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support
	  commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet).
	. a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir
	. new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/
	. test compile fix
	. harmonize includes
	. /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no
	  kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping
	  is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even
	  less on the state of the machine making them now.
	. rename nbsd_lib* to lib*
	. reduce mtree

504abf4b34 Inlining 64bit integer handling functions
- if gcc/clang is used the C functions that use long long can be
  inlined to get better performance (yes, it makes difference)

a16308efdb cdecl calling convention expects the callee to pop the hidden pointer on
struct return. For example, GCC and LLVM comply with this (tested on IA32).

ACK doesn't seem to follow this convention and expects the caller to clean up
the stack. Compiling hand-written ACK-compliant assembly code (returning a 
struct) with GCC or LLVM used to break things (4-bytes misaligned stack).

The patch fixes this problem.

bde2109b7c IPC status code for receive().
IPC changes:
- receive() is changed to take an additional parameter, which is a pointer to
a status code.
- The status code is filled in by the kernel to provide additional information
to the caller. For now, the kernel only fills in the IPC call used by the
sender.

Syslib changes:
- sef_receive() has been split into sef_receive() (with the original semantics)
and sef_receive_status() which exposes the status code to userland.
- Ideally, every sys process should gradually switch to sef_receive_status()
and use is_ipc_notify() as a dependable way to check for notify.
- SEF has been modified to use is_ipc_notify() and demonstrate how to use the
new status code.

bef0e3eb63 - Add support for the ucontext system calls (getcontext, setcontext,
swapcontext, and makecontext).
- Fix VM to not erroneously think the stack segment and data segment have
  collided when a user-space thread invokes brk().
- Add test51 to test ucontext functionality.
- Add man pages for ucontext system calls.
