e0246df26b [kernel] Add automatic verification to syscalls
Since we have a DSL for specifying syscalls, we can create a verificaton
method for each syscall that can cover most argument (and eventually
capability) verification instead of doing it piecemeal in each syscall
implementation, which can be more error-prone.

Now a new _syscall_verify_* function exists for every syscall, which
calls the real implementation. The syscall table for the syscall handler
now maps to these verify functions.

Other changes:

- Updated the definition grammar to allow options to have a "key:value"
  style, to eventually support capabilities.
- Added an "optional" option for parameters that says a syscall will
  accept a null value.
- Some bonnibel fixes, as definition file changes weren't always
  properly causing updates in the build dep graph.
- The syscall implementation function signatures are no longer exposed
  in syscall.h. Also, the unused syscall enum has been removed.

c9d713fc7f [build] Move to yaml-based build config and manifest
Overall, I believe TOML to be a superior configuration format than YAML
in many situations, but it gets ugly quickly when nesting data
structures. The build configs were fine in TOML, but the manifest (and
my future plans for it) got unwieldy. I also did not want different
formats for each kind of configuration on top of also having a custom
DSL for interface definitions, so I've switched all the TOML to YAML.

Also of note is that this change actually adds structure to the manifest
file, which was little more than a CSV previously.

f79fe2e056 [build] Move to python build scripts per module
This change moves Bonnibel from a separate project into the jsix tree,
and alters the project configuration to be jsix-specific. (I stopped
using bonnibel for any other projects, so it's far easier to make it a
custom generator for jsix.) The build system now also uses actual python
code in `*.module` files to configure modules instead of TOML files.
Target configs (boot, kernel-mode, user-mode) now moved to separate TOML
files under `configs/` and can inherit from one another.
