cbaa3465a8 Kernel: Add jail semantics to methods iterating over thread lists
We should consider whether the selected Thread is within the same jail
or not.
Therefore let's make it clear to callers with jail semantics if a called
method checks if the desired Thread object is within the same jail.

As for Thread::for_each_* methods, currently nothing in the kernel
codebase needs iteration with consideration for jails, so the old
Thread::for_each* were simply renamed to include "ignoring_jails" suffix
in their names.

b55199c227 Kernel: Move TTY-related code to a new subdirectory under Devices
The TTY subsystem is represented with unix devices, so it should be
under the Devices directory like the Audio, Storage, GPU and HID
subsystems.

1c0aa51684 Kernel+Userland: Remove the {get,set}_thread_name syscalls
These syscalls are not necessary on their own, and they give the false
impression that a caller could set or get the thread name of any process
in the system, which is not true.

Therefore, move the functionality of these syscalls to be options in the
prctl syscall, which makes it abundantly clear that these operations
could only occur from a running thread in a process that sees other
threads in that process only.

58b509584a Kernel: Allocate version string in the Process::initialize() method
Instead of allocating a KString on each uname syscall, just allocate
during boot so we never have to worry about heap allocation in that
syscall.

d8b514873f Kernel: Use FixedStringBuffer for fixed-length strings in syscalls
Using the kernel stack is preferable, especially when the examined
strings should be limited to a reasonable length.

This is a small improvement, because if we don't actually move these
strings then we don't need to own heap allocations for them during the
syscall handler function scope.

In addition to that, some kernel strings are known to be limited, like
the hostname string, for these strings we also can use FixedStringBuffer
to store and copy to and from these buffers, without using any heap
allocations at all.

3fd4997fc2 Kernel: Don't allocate memory for names of processes and threads
Instead, use the FixedCharBuffer class to ensure we always use a static
buffer storage for these names. This ensures that if a Process or a
Thread were created, there's a guarantee that setting a new name will
never fail, as only copying of strings should be done to that static
storage.

The limits which are set are 32 characters for processes' names and 64
characters for thread names - this is because threads' names could be
more verbose than processes' names.

2fd23745a9 Kernel: Allow relaxing cleanup task rules during system shutdown
Once we move to a more proper shutdown procedure, processes other than
the finalizer task must be able to perform cleanup and finalization
duties, not only because the finalizer task itself needs to be cleaned
up by someone. This global variable, mirroring the early boot flags,
allows a future shutdown process to perform cleanup on its own.

Note that while this *could* be considered a weakening in security, the
attack surface is minimal and the results are not dramatic. To exploit
this, an attacker would have to gain a Kernel write primitive to this
global variable (bypassing KASLR among other things) and then gain some
way of calling the relevant functions, all of this only to destroy some
other running process. The same effect can be achieved with LPE which
can often be gained with significantly simpler userspace exploits (e.g.
of setuid binaries).

7c0540a229 Everywhere: Move global Kernel pattern code to Kernel/Library directory
This has KString, KBuffer, DoubleBuffer, KBufferBuilder, IOWindow,
UserOrKernelBuffer and ScopedCritical classes being moved to the
Kernel/Library subdirectory.

Also, move the panic and assertions handling code to that directory.
