The file system may not be expecting these upcalls at arbitrary
moments, while they serve only as a performance optimization anyway.

This library provides new abstractions for the upper (VFS) side of
file system services, and should be used for all file system service
implementations from now on. It provides the following functionality:
- a function call table abstraction, hiding the details of the
VFS-FS protocol with simple parameters;
- a (currently limited) number of per-function steps required for
all file system implementations, such as copying in and out path
names and result buffers;
- a default implementation for multicomponent path lookups, such
that the file system merely has to implement resolution of single
components at a time;
- an abstraction for copying data from and to the file system, which
allows transparent intraprocess copying as required for the lookup
implementation;
- a set of functions to simplify getdents implementations.
The message loop provided by the library is currently for use by
single-threaded file system implementations only. Multithreaded file
system services may use the more low-level message processing
functionality.
Protocol-level optimizations such as including names in protocol
messages may be hidden entirely in this library. In addition, in the
future, the lookup implementation may be replaced by a single-
component lookup VFS/FS protocol request as part of a VFS name cache
implementation; this, too, can be hidden entirely in this library.

Known limitations:
- comment for now testisofs, as iso9660fs is known to be broken.
Benefits:
- near 3x speed improvement on C++ code compilation, bringing down
make build to from 44min down to 21min.
- Allows for X applications to work properly, which should be available
in near-term future through pkgsrc for 3.3.0.

- replace a stray assert(0) with abort()
- remove unrequired copy-pasted #undef NDEBUG
- replace some #if NDEBUG by #if DEBUG as they protect debug printf()s.

- assert() is macro which is defined as empty, while panic is always
present. I added an explicit abort() after the macro to make sure the
function never returns in case of wrong flags.
- Fixed gcc build with -NDEBUG, -Os for ARM.
* A few 'may be used uninitialized' messages
* A few new missing support library functions where added in libminc.

. get rid of includes in libcompat_minix:
. move configfile.h to minix/include/
. all others are unneeded as they point to other files
. merge the .c files with libc

- With this patch, DDEKit no longer uses IRQ number as interrupt ID
and more IRQ numbers can be used with it
- DDEKit IRQ code, will now check return values and panic on error

RS used to do a stat, and check that the stat was successful, but it
didn't check that the executable was not actually empty.
This patch adds a check to detect file which are smaller than the minimum
ELF size possible.

This concerns all services, a.k.a drivers, filesystem drivers, network
(inet, lwip, uds) servers, and the system servers.
