between creation of a file descriptor and close(2) when using kernel
assisted threads. What we do is stick descriptors in the table, but
mark them as "larval". This causes essentially everything to treat
it as a non-existent descriptor, except for fdalloc(), which sees a
filled slot so that it won't (incorrectly) allocate it again. When
a descriptor is fully constructed, the code that has constructed it
marks it as "mature" (which actually clears the "larval" flag), and
things continue to work as normal.
While here, gather all the code that gets a descriptor from the table
into a fd_getfile() function, and call it, rather than having the
same (sometimes incorrect) code copied all over the place.
*_emul_path variables
change macros CHECK_ALT_{CREAT|EXIST} to use that, 'root' doesn't need
to be passed explicitly any more and *_CHECK_ALT_{CREAT|EXIST} are removed
change explicit emul_find() calls in probe functions to get the emulation
path from the checked exec switch entry's emulation
remove no longer needed header files
add e_flags and e_syscall to struct emul; these are unsed and empty for now
