The async char protocol already has this, so this patch closes the
gap between the two protocols a bit. Support for this flag has been
added to all sync char drivers that support CANCEL at all.
The LOG driver was already using the asynchronous protocol, but it
did not support the nonblocking transfer flag. This has been fixed
as well.

As with w_task, this ensures that the field remains cleared if it is
not used. Without this, worker_stop could mistakenly identify a thread
as talking to a device driver rather than a (crashed) file server.

It was always set, but not always cleared, when talking to asynchronous
drivers. This could cause erratic behavior upon a driver crash.
Normally, a worker thread's w_task field is set when it's about to
communicate with a driver or FS. Then upon receiving a reply we can
do sanity checks (that the thread we want to wake up was actually
waiting for a reply). Also, when a driver/FS crashes, we can identify
which worker threads were talking to the crashed endpoint and handle
the error gracefully.
Asynchronous drivers are a bit special, though. In most cases, the
sender of the request is not interested in the reply (the sender was
suspended and only wants to know whether the request was successfully
caried out or not). However, the open request is special, as the reply
carries information needed by the sender. This is the only request
where a worker thread actually yields and waits for the result. This is
also the only case where we're interested in setting w_task for
asynchronous drivers.

* Removed startup code patches in lib/csu regarding kernel to userland
ABI.
* Aligned stack layout on NetBSD stack layout.
* Generate valid stack pointers instead of offsets by taking into account
_minix_kerninfo->kinfo->user_sp.
* Refactored stack generation, by moving part of execve in two
functions {minix_stack_params(), minix_stack_fill()} and using them
in execve(), rs and vm.
* Changed load offset of rtld (ld.so) to:
execi.args.stack_high - execi.args.stack_size - 0xa00000
which is 10MB below the main executable stack.

The main motivation for this change is that only Loris supports
multithreading, and Loris supports dynamic thread allocation, so the
number of supported threads can be implemented as a bit flag (i.e.,
either 1 or "at least as many as VFS has"). The ABI break obviates the
need to support file system versioning at this time, and several
other aspects are better implemented as flags as well. Other changes:
- replace peek/bpeek test upon mount with FS flag as well;
- mark libsffs as 64-bit file size capable;
- remove old (3.2.1) getdents support.

- pass in file system type through mount(2), and return this type in
statvfs structures as generated by [f]statvfs(2);
- align mount flags field with NetBSD's, splitting out service flags
which are not to be passed to VFS;
- remove limitation of mount ABI to 16-byte labels, so that labels
can be made larger in the future;
- introduce new m11 message union type for mount(2) as side effect.

This is a requirement for implementing calls such as getmntinfo(3).
VFS is now responsible for filling in some of the structure's fields.

The following types are modified (old -> new):
* _BSD_USECONDS_T_ int -> unsigned int
* __socklen_t __int32_t -> __uint32_t
* blksize_t uint32_t -> int32_t
* rlim_t uint32_t -> uint64_t
On ARM:
* _BSD_CLOCK_T_ int -> unsigned int
On Intel:
* _BSD_CLOCK_T_ int -> unsigned long
bin/cat is also updated in order to fix warnings.
_BSD_TIMER_T_ has still to be aligned.

clock_t is currently a signed type, but in NetBSD this is not the
case. As we plan on aligning our types we have to change this as this
prevents negative delta from being correctly used.

Before this change overflowing the free running clock counter
between the time the timer was read and the time the overflow
check was done resulted in read_tsc_64 returning a to high value.

When we start using a new pagetable (for a new process)
the last part is to ensure the pagetable itself can be
accessed by VM. This is done in pt_bind by updating
the "pagetable of pagetables" and we want this mapping
to match other mappings to the l1 pagetable.

When copying data from cacheable memory also use cacheable
attributes when creating temporary mappings.
