Add a system call to assert signals on a given object, only within the
range of user-settable signals. Also made object_wait return
immediately if any of the given signals are already set.
Add the channel object for sending messages between threads. Currently
no good of passing channels to other threads, but global variables in a
single process work. Currently channels are slow and do double copies,
need to refine more.

Implement the syscalls necessary for threads to create other threads in
their same process. This involved rearranging a number of syscalls, as
well as implementing object_wait and a basic implementation of a
process' list of handles.
Re-implent the concept of processes as separate from threads, and as a
kobject API object. Also improve scheduler::prune which was doing some
unnecessary iterations.
