Added mutex_control syscall for userspace mutexes.

- Compiles and Codezero runs as normal without touching mutex implementation
- Mutex implementation needs testing.

The mutex control syscall allows userspace programs to declare any virtual
address as a mutex lock and ask for help from the kernel syscall
for resolving locking contentions.
