Resolves#99.
When the extended primary loader for CD was introduced in 2008-2009 it
used to load a relatively small secondary loader. Later the secondary
loader was integrated into the kernel, hence the primary loader had to
load the kernel which is 100kB+. The EDD BIOS specification allows to
read less than 0x80 sectors at once using Int 0x13 0x42 service. For a
512-byte sector this is less than 0x10000 bytes which is a 64kB limit.
The same limit of 64kB is reached on a CD with only 0x20 sectors,
because the sector size is 2048 bytes here. This commit changes the
maximum number of sectors that can be read by the loader at once from
0x7f to 0x20, i.e. reading is done in 64kB blocks now.
CDDataBuf was considered a free memory. It was then allocated for other
kernel structures what eventually caused the crash.

* kernel: Make sf9 return TSTATE_FREE for invalid slots: 0, >255, free.
* menu: Ignore free slots even if other fields of proc_info look valid.
Documentation (sysfuncs.txt) clearly states all the other info
as invalid when slot_state is TSTATE_FREE.
* taskbar: Same as menu.
* cmm/lib/*: Same as menu.
* programs/macros.inc: Add TSTATE_* macros.
Added a new driver for the iso9660 file system. The driver supports the current version of the disk subsystem and is intended for further translation of IDE ATAPI devices to this driver. The basic version of ISO9660 and the Joliet extension are supported.

- To better support git, remove SVN dependant `$Revision$` from file headers. This does *not* remove: the use of `__REV__` macro in `boostr.inc` and `kernel.asm`
- Header Copyright notices updated to 2024.
- Minimal white space cleanup (trailing spaces automatically removed).
- Note: `asmxygen.py` has a *large* amount of whitespace cleanup, due to incorrect line endings.

Now sf9 doesn't read uninitialized memory when called for an empty slot.
Also, applications don't get stale data after sf9 anymore.

NTFS fix for sf 70.3 by Pathoswithin (non-tested) => Doczom please check if you can

- Rename to `CREDITS.TXT` for clarity.
- Improve text of opening paragraph. Thanks to various translators.
- Reformat to use headings, removing excessive whitespace characters (~2.5KiB).
- Sort list of contributors alphabetically; easier to maintain.
- Add missing contributors and remove from `kernel.asm`. Thanks to @rgimad.
- Minor formatting and whitespace cleanup.

- removed the old cursor and the code for its operation
- minor fixes in other kernel modules
- new fields have been added to the display_t structure for further refactoring of the graphics subsystem.

- The next message was improved: "New settings have been applied. Do you want to record them for the future boots? Answer 'yes' only if your booting device is writable." to avoid users saving changes on CD. This is a bug 'cos normally such behaviour must be handeled in the code http://board.kolibrios.org/viewtopic.php?p=80012#p80012
- Hide option "Create blank image" which is outdated now
