7a81db8782 Ongoing work for adding per-thread UTCB structures.
Added setting of utcb address to l4_thread_control.
This is going to be moved to exchange_registers() since we need to pass
both the utcb physical and virtual address and exregs fits such context
modification better than thread_control.

54a9b2901d Removed allocation of utcb shared pages by mm0 completely.
- Now libl4 has no references to utcb page or shmat etc.
- Pager does not deal with special case utcb page allocation.
  It instead allocates a shared page from shm memory pool.
- All tasks working to original standard.

Next:
- Add per-thread utcb allocation from the kernel
- Add larger register file for standard ipc
- Add long ipc (up to 1Kb)

af03975dc1 Towards adding sys_clone()
Stopped working on self_spawn() - going to finish clone() syscall first.
Arch-specific clone() library call that does ipc() and cloned child setup.
- Need to finish thread_create() that satisfy clone() necessities. i.e. setting up its stack.
  Question: Does the pager (and thus the microkernel) have to explicitly set SP_USR?
  Once the call is known to be successful, the library could set it.
