cinap_lenrek 8d51e7fa1a kernel: implement portable userinit() and simplify process creation
replace machine specific userinit() by a portable
implemntation that uses kproc() to create the first
process. the initcode text is mapped using kmap(),
so there is no need for machine specific tmpmap()
functions.

initcode stack preparation should be done in init0()
where the stack is mapped and can be accessed directly.

replacing the machine specific userinit() allows some
big simplifications as sysrfork() and kproc() are now
the only callers of newproc() and we can avoid initializing
fields that we know are being initialized by these
callers.

rename autogenerated init.h and reboot.h headers.
the initcode[] and rebootcode[] blobs are now in *.i
files and hex generation was moved to portmkfile. the
machine specific mkfile only needs to specify how to
build rebootcode.out and initcode.out.

cinap_lenrek 7f3659e78f kernel: cleanup exit()/shutdown()/reboot() code
introduce cpushutdown() function that does the common
operation of initiating shutdown, returning once all
cpu's got the message and are about to shutdown. this
avoids duplicated code which isnt really machine specific.

automatic reboot on panic only when *debug= is not set
and the machine is a cpu server or has no display,
otherwise just hang.

cinap_lenrek b8cf3cb879 kernel: reduce Page structure size by changing Page.cachectl[]
there are no kernels currently that do page coloring,
so the only use of cachectl[] is flushing the icache
(on arm and ppc).

on pc64, cachectl consumes 32 bytes in each page resulting
in over 200 megabytes of overhead for 32gb of ram with 4K
pages.

this change removes cachectl[] and adds txtflush ulong
that is set to ~0 by pio() to instruct putmmu() to flush
the icache.
