This patch adds ipc_sendrecv() and opens the way for client/server communication.

ipc_sendrecv() replaces ipc_sendwait() which was flawed. See ipc_sendrecv() for
how client/server communication works. Tested with page faults where the kernel
does an ipc_sendrecv() to faulty thread's pager and the pager successfully handles
the request, and returns back the result, which effectively restarts the faulty
thread.
