8534d8d3c5 [kernel] Add endpoint object and related syscalls
The endpoint object adds synchronous IPC. Also added the wait-type of
'object' to threads.

838776d7df [kernel] Fix bug in vmem commit
When committing an area of vmem and splitting from a larger block, the
block that is returned was set to the unknown state, and the leading
block was incorrectly set to the desired state.

Also remove extra unused thread ctor.

579eaaf4a0 [kernel] Move kernel stacks out of the heap
We were previously allocating kernel stacks as large objects on the
heap. Now keep track of areas of the kernel stack area that are in use,
and allocate them from there. Also required actually implementing
vm_space::commit(). This still needs more work.

ae3290c53d [kernel] Add userspace threading
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.

c3abe035c8 [kernel] Remove thread_data pointer from TCB
The TCB is always stored at a constant offset within the thread object.
So instead of carrying an extra pointer, just implement thread::from_tcb
to get the thread.

ef5c333030 [kernel] Create process kernel object
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.

794c86f9b4 [kernel] Add thead kobject class
Add the thread kernel API object and move the scheduler to use threads
instead of processes for scheduling and task switching.
