This patch adds (very limited) support for memory-mapping pages on
file systems that are mounted on the special "none" device and that
do not implement PEEK support by themselves. This includes hgfs,
vbfs, and procfs.
The solution is implemented in libvtreefs, and consists of allocating
pages, filling them with content by calling the file system's READ
functionality, passing the pages to VM, and freeing them again. A new
VM flag is used to indicate that these pages should be mapped in only
once, and thus not cached beyond their single use. This prevents
stale data from getting mapped in without the involvement of the file
system, which would be problematic on file systems where file contents
may become outdated at any time. No VM caching means no sharing and
poor performance, but mmap no longer fails on these file systems.
Compared to a libc-based approach, this patch retains the on-demand
nature of mmap. Especially tail(1) is known to map in a large file
area only to use a small portion of it.
All file systems now need to be given permission for the SETCACHEPAGE
and CLEARCACHE calls to VM.
A very basic regression test is added to test74.

With the import of Xorg, a proper separation between login-time and sub
shell-time of the environment setup is necessary.
Instead of re-developping this from scratch, I am taking the opportunity
to import the NetBSD default environment.

We have to use SOCK_SEQPACKET instead of SOCK_STREAM for client/server
communication, because UDS does things with control messages that tmux
does not expect.

/etc/profile enables by default tabcompletion, as well as emacs mode,
in order to keep the old MINIX ash behavior.
Note: The shell now refuses to source a script without a relative or
absolute path.
This means:
- '. myscript.sh' fails, while
- '. ./myscript.sh' succeeds

- This improves the user messages.
- This update the pkgsrc checkout rules to point to the new repository,
as well as the new work process we are introducing.
- This introduces rules for the MINIX sources, as we don't have the
space anymore to distribute them by default on the official ISO.

The bin user doesn't need an actual home folder to run the tests. As
such this account should not be used in 'su - bin'. To be noted that
'su bin' still works as expected, and allow to run the minix test set
as usual.

We used to have an account "ast" as a token to Andrew S. Tannebaum,
the creator of MINIX. The account was disable by default, with no
possible way to login.
It seems it generates more confusion than it is worth, so this removes it.
The default skeleton user profile is still stored into /etc/ast instead
of the usual /etc/skel.

/bin/false is often used by PKGSRC packages which create unpriviledged

This fixes the generation and installation of such packages.

- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)

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.

- remove non-PCI support, since all supported platforms with at_wini
devices also have PCI support by now;
- correspondingly, stop using information from the BIOS altogether;
- limit each driver instance to one controller, to be in line with
the general MINIX3 one-instance-per-controller driver model; this
limits the number of disks per at_wini instance to four;
- go through the controllers by the order of their occurrence in the
PCI table, thus removing the exception for compatibility devices;
- let the second at_wini instance shut down silently if there is only
one IDE controller;
- clean up some extra code we don't need anymore, and resolve some
WARNS=5 level warnings.
Overall, these changes should simplify automatic loading of the right
disk drivers at boot time in the future.
