671a0ce0fb [kernel] Move pml4 create/delete into vm_space
vm_space and page_table continue to take over duties from
page_manager:

- creation and deletion of address spaces / pml4s
- cross-address-space copies for endpoints
- taking over pml4 ownership from process

Also fixed the bug where the wrong process was being set in the cpu
data.

To solve: now the kernel process has its own vm_space which is not
g_kernel_space.

ac67111b83 [kernel] Move the page table cache into page_table
Further chipping away at page_manager: the cache of pages to be used as
page tables gets moved to a static in page_table.

9aa08a70cf [kernel] Begin replacing page_manager with vm_space
This is the first commit of several reworking the VM system. The main
focus is replacing page_manager's global functionality with objects
representing individual VM spaces. The main changes in this commit were:

- Adding the (as yet unused) vm_area object, which will be the main
  point of control for programs to allocate or share memory.
- Replace the old vm_space with a new one based on state in its page
  tables. They will also be containers for vm_areas.
- vm_space takes over from page_manager as the page fault handler
- Commented out the page walking in memory_bootstrap; I'll probably need
  to recreate this functionality, but it was broken as it was.
- Split out the page_table.h implementations from page_manager.cpp into
  the new page_table.cpp, updated it, and added page_table::iterator as
  well.

The vm_space code should not have been in kutil, moving it to kernel.
