There were a few lingering bugs due to places where 510/511 were
hard-coded as the kernel-space PML4 entries. These are now constants
defined in kernel_memory.h instead.

GDB works far better now with QEMU's `-S` flag. No longer does it
complain about changing the target from 32 to 64 bits. Get rid of the
old `waiting` loop and `sleep` call in the GDB config for the kernel.

`kutil::vector` was calling `operator delete []` on memory that had not
been allocated with `operator new []`, and so was deleting the wrong
pointer.

The `kernel_main()` had a lot change out from under it with the
bootloader changes. This change brings most of it back in line with the
new kernel arguments.

Created a new `memory_initialize()` function that uses the new-style
kernel args structure from the new bootloader.
Additionally:
* Fixed a hard-coded interrupt EOI address that didn't work with new
memory locations
* Make the `page_manager::fault_handler()` automatically grant pages
in the kernel heap

At some point, `init_console()` ended up not being before the first
usage of some `log::` functions, which were jumping off into garbage.

The bootloader was previously just passing the memory map as a module,
but the memory map is important enough to want a direct pointer, instead
of having to search the modules.
The `kernel_offset` and `page_offset` had already been updated with
previous bootloader changes, but `kernel_max_heap` had not. Also, make
all the constants `constexpr` instead of `static const` that would live
in multiple TUs.
When `page_entry_iterator` became a template and changed its static shifts
translating virtual address to table indices into a for loop, that loop
was getting the indices backwards (ie, PML4E index was really the PTE
index, and so on).

* When using the non-allocating version of `get_uefi_mappings` the
length was not getting set. Reworked this function.
* Having `build_kernel_mem_map` from `bootloader_main_uefi` caused it to
get an out of date map key. Moved this function into `efi_main` right
before exiting boot services.
Searching for `hlt` in disassembly is an easy way to find the error
handler. This change centralizes it to just one, to better match
disassembly with code.
The page table code had been copied mostly verbatim from the kernel, and
was a dense mess. I abstraced the `page_table_indices` class and the old
loop behavior of `map_in` into a new `page_entry_iterator` class, making
both `map_pages` and the initial offset mapping code much cleaner.

Set up initial page tables for both the offset-mapped area and the
loaded kernel code and data.
* Got rid of the `loaded_elf` struct - the loader now runs after the
initial PML4 is created and maps the ELF sections itself.
* Copied in the `page_table` and `page_table_indices` from the kernel,
still need to clean this up and extract it into shared code.
* Added `page_table_cache` to the kernel args to pass along free pages
that can be used for initial page tables.

Clang needs memset, memcpy, etc to exist even in freestanding situations
because it will emit calls to those functions. This commit adds a simple
weak-linked memset implementation.
The `build_kernel_mem_map` function now calls `get_uefi_mappings`
itself, instead of having the efi map passed in. `get_uefi_mappings`
also now takes a `bool allocate` to direct it to actually allocate
the map or not. If it doesn't, it instead just returns the size of
the map and the metadata - which `build_kernel_mem_map` uses to decide
how much space to first allocate for the kernel's map.
Adding this now because I'm sure I'll forget later. Make sure to
annotate the entrypoint function pointer as `__attribute__((sysv_abi))`
so that it's not called via ms abi like the rest of the loader.
Exiting boot services can't actually be done from inside
`bootloader_uefi_main`, because there are objects in that scope that run
code requiring boot services in their destructors.
Also added `support.cpp` with `memcpy` because clang will emit
references to `memcpy` even in freestanding mode.
Added a `debug_break` function to allow for faking breakpoints when
connecting to the bootloader with GDB.

The `get_mappings()` function was getting too large, and some of its
output is needed by more than just the building of the kernel map. Split
it out into two.

- The old kernel_args structure is now mostly represented as a series of
'modules' or memory ranges, tagged with a type. An arbitrary number
can be passed to the kernel
- Update bootloader to allocate space for the args header and 10 module
descriptors
