VM used to call sendrec to send a boot-time RS_INIT reply to RS, but
RS could run into a pagefault at the same time, thus spawning a
message to VM, resulting in a deadlock. We resolve this situation by
making VM acknowledge RS_INIT asynchronously at boot time, while
retaining the synchronous sendrec for subsequent RS_INIT responses.

Previously, RS would clean up dead services only when it is idle.
During shutdown, all services are marked with the 'exiting' flag,
and these flags lead RS to conclude it is not idle. Therefore, at
shutdown time, no services were cleaned up anymore, leading to
deadlock situations. For example, VFS could end up waiting for a
service that was already dead, or one driver could end up waiting
for an interrupt on a line shared with another dead driver.
While it may be possible to ignore RS_EXITING when checking idle
status, other flags may have the same ultimate effect. Therefore,
this patch skips the idle check altogether when in shutdown mode.

While in a multicomponent live update that includes RS, the new RS
instance may receive heartbeat replies which, after a rollback, the
old RS instance will then never see. As a result, the rolled-back
RS instance may end up killing well-behaving services.

Previously, procfs would retrieve the rproc and rprocpub tables from
RS in two separate calls. This allowed for a race condition where the
tables could change in between the calls, resulting in a panic in
procfs under certain circumstances. RS now implements a new method
for getsysinfo that allows the retrieval of both tables at once.

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.
