Experimental busy dad's learning activity.

Rough list of features

• ✅ interrupts (time, keyboard)
• ✅ paging
• ✅ heap memory
• ✅ higher half kernel
• ✅ userspace (ring 3) programs
• ✅ multiprocessing with simple scheduler
• ✅ syscalls with userspace libc in Rust and C
• ✅ VGA mode
• ✅ "fake file operations" (read files embedded in executable)
• ✅ use Rust instead of C
• ✅ run Doom
• enable userspace processes to communicate via an IPC
• network stack
• make running on RISC-V (ESP32-C3?) additionally to x86_64

Rough list of ecosystem

• ✅ Github CI action to build
• ✅ gdb debugging
• adopt Bazel instead of make

• docker build buildenv_rust -t jos_buildenv
• docker run --rm -it -v "${pwd}:/root/env" jos_buildenv
• make build-x86_64
• (other shell) qemu-system-x86_64 -no-reboot -cdrom dist/x86_64/kernel.iso
