dynamic executables on ramdisk support
See UPDATING about upgrading clang for dynamic linking.
. allow executables on ramdisk to be dynamically linked; this means
putting a few required shared libraries and ld.elf_so on the ramdisk.
. this makes the ramdisk (usage) smaller when they are dynamic, but
bigger when they're not.
. also we can safely ditch newroot and call mount directly as that is
all newroot does.
. create proto.common to share a bunch of entries between
small/nonsmall cases

build shared versions of libraries
building defaults to off until clang is updated.
current clang does not handle -shared, necessary to change the ld
invocation to build shared libraries properly. a new clang should be
installed and MKPIC defaults to no unless the newer clang is detected.
changes:
. mainly small imports of a Makefile or two and small fixes
(turning things back on that were turned off in Makefiles)
. e.g.: dynamic librefuse now depends on dynamic
libpuffs, so libpuffs has to be built dynamically too
and a make dependency barrier is needed in lib/Makefile
. all library objects now have a PIC (for .so) and non-PIC
version, so everything is built twice.
. generate PIC versions of the compat (un-RENAMEd) jump files,
include function type annotation in generated assembly
. build progs with -static by default for now
. also build ld.elf_so
. also import NetBSD ldd

VFS: fix filp reuse race
Pipes consist of two filps (read filp and write filp) and a shared
vnode. When the writer leaves the filp reference count drops to
zero and subsequent find_filp()s should not find the filp when a
reader looks for it and the reader gets EOF. However, the pipe()
system call tries to find two filps, marks them in use, and only
after a successful node creation on PFS, overwrites the shared
vnode with the new vnode. Consequently, this leaves a small window
where a just closed 'pipe write filp' gets reused and marked as
present, before becoming the actual new 'pipe write filp' for a new
pipe. A reader for the old pipe will think a writer is present and
wait for that writer to write something or to leave; both actions
should revive the suspended reader. This will never happen and the
reader will be stuck forever.

TTY: don't allow multiple readers on tty minor
TTY has no way of keeping track of multiple readers for a tty minor
device. Instead, it stores a read request for the last reader only.
Consequently, the first ("overwritten") reader gets stuck on a read
request that's never going to be finished. Also, the overwriting
causes a grant mismatch in VFS when TTY returns a reply for the
second reader.
This patch is a work around for the actual problem (i.e., keeping track
of multiple readers). It checks whether there is a read operation in
progress and returns an error if it is --preventing that reader from
getting overwritten and stuck. It fixes a bug triggered by executing
'top | more' and pressing the space bar for a while (easily reproducable
in a VM, not on hardware).

VFS: fix dead lock
When running out of worker threads to handle device replies a dead
lock resolver thread is used. However, it was only used for FS
endpoints; it is now used for "system processes" (drivers and FS
endpoints). Also, drivers were marked as system process when they
were not "forced" to map (i.e., mapping was done before endpoint was
alive).

VFS: make m_in job local
By making m_in job local (i.e., each job has its own copy of m_in instead
of refering to the global m_in) we don't have to store and restore m_in
on every thread yield. This reduces overhead. Moreover, remove the
assumption that m_in is preserved. Do_XXX functions have to copy the
system call parameters as soon as possible and only pass those copies to
other functions.
Furthermore, this patch cleans up some code and uses better types in a lot
of places.

build: don't -L/usr/pkg/lib
You might have to update the compiler-rt package! See UPDATING.
. the purpose of this -L was solely to find compiler-rt, which contains

. it is cleaner to isolate the base system from packages, and so
compiler-rt puts itself in /usr/pkg/compiler-rt/lib/ too, which the
base system henceforth uses exclusively

Previously, the mmap address (if given) was merely used as a lower
bound, and then possibly overriden with a hint. Now, the mapping is
first tried at the exact given address. If that fails, the start of
the mmap range is used as lower bound (which is then still overridden
by the hint for efficiency).
This allows two pages to be mapped in at predefined addresses, where
the second address is lower than the first. That was not possible.
