34e745b0b4 Add uid and gid to CharacterDevices.
The vast majority of them will be owned by 0:0 (the default.)
However, PTY pairs will now be owned by the uid:gid of the opening process.

2b4374d08e Let the slave PTY keep the master PTY alive.
This ownership model is a bit confusing. There's a retain cycle between
MasterPTY and SlavePTY, but it's broken when the SlavePTY is closed, meaning
that there are no more FileDescriptors referring to it.

b4e478aa50 Deallocate PTY's when they close.
This required a fair bit of plumbing. The CharacterDevice::close() virtual
will now be closed by ~FileDescriptor(), allowing device implementations to
do custom cleanup at that point.

One big problem remains: if the master PTY is closed before the slave PTY,
we go into crashy land.

027d26cd5d Add a String::format() and use that in place of ksprintf() in the Kernel.
You're never gonna be right 100% of the time when guessing how much buffer
space you need. This avoids having to make that type of decision in a bunch
of cases. :^)

e9b948103d Add a /dev/pts filesystem and make PTY allocation dynamic.
You can now open as many PTY pairs as you like. Well, it's actually capped
at 8 for now, but it's just a constant and trivial to change.

Unregistering a PTY pair is untested because I didn't want to start
mucking with that in Terminal right now.

b896d4b237 PTY: Disallow infinite writing to slaves.
This way we don't buffer ungodly amounts of output in the kernel when doing
e.g "cat /dev/random" on a PTY.

Via the TIOCSCTTY and TIOCNOTTY ioctls.

2f74c2f430 Add basic PTY support.
For now, there are four hard-coded PTYs: /dev/pt{m,s}[0123]
Use this in the Terminal to open a pty pair and spawn a shell.
