24057fd4f4 kernel: introduce per process FPU struct (PFPU) for more flexible machine specific fpu handling
introducing the PFPU structue which allows the machine specific
code some flexibility on how to handle the FPU process state.

for example, in the pc and pc64 kernel, the FPsave structure is
arround 512 bytes. with avx512, it could grow up to 2K. instead
of embedding that into the Proc strucutre, it is more effective
to allocate it on first use of the fpu, as most processes do not
use simd or floating point in the first place. also, the FPsave
structure has special 16 byte alignment constraint, which further
favours dynamic allocation.

this gets rid of the memmoves in pc/pc64 kernels for the aligment.

there is also devproc, which is now checking if the fpsave area
is actually valid before reading it, avoiding debuggers to see
garbage data.

the Notsave structure is gone now, as it was not used on any
machine.

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.
