55a5c97034 [libc] Attempt to speed up memcpy for aligned mem
Copy long-by-long instead of byte-by-byte if both pointers are similarly
aligned.

7fcb4efab6 [kernel] Improve process init
Move process init from each process needing a main.s with _start to
crt0.s in libc. Also change to a sysv-like initial stack with a
j6-specific array of initialization values after the program arguments.

8bb9e22218 [kernel] Move bind_irq syscall to new system object
In order to implement capabilities on system resources like IRQs so that
they may be restricted to drivers only, add a new 'system' kobject type,
and move the bind_irq functionality from endpoint to system.

Also fix some stack bugs passing the initial handles to a program.

ff78c951f0 [libc] Implement sbrk to allow malloc() to work
Userspace can now allocte via malloc. This is slightly janky because it
relies on a single static handle in the library code.

67ebc58812 [kernel] Allow for more than three syscall args
The rcx register is used by the function call ABI for the 4th argument,
but is also clobbered by SYSCALL to hold the IP. The r10 register is
caller-saved but not part of the ABI, so stash rcx there when crossing
the syscall boundary.

13aee1755e [kernel] Spit out vm_area types
The vm_space allow() functionality was a bit janky; using VMAs for all
regions would be a lot cleaner. To that end, this change:

- Adds a "static array" ctor to kutil::vector for setting the kernel
  address space's VMA list. This way a kernel heap VMA can be created
  without the heap already existing.
- Splits vm_area into different subclasses depending on desired behavior
- Splits out the concept of vm_mapper which maps vm_areas to vm_spaces,
  so that some kinds of VMA can be inherently single-space
- Implements VMA resizing so that userspace can grow allocations.
- Obsolete page_table_indices is removed

Also, the following bugs were fixed:

- kutil::map iterators on empty maps no longer break
- memory::page_count was doing page-align, not page-count

95a35cd0bf [libc] Bring libc in-tree
Moving libc from its separate repo into this one, minor resulting build
fixes, and a hacky way to add -I for libc headers in builds.
