The driver now works by default on NV40 and higher, but without acceleration.
If someone tests using overlay, let me know if it actually works: NV43 seems to have a new engine, NV40 _might_ still have the old, and so, useable engine.
NV40-plus overlay is something we will NOT have any time soon!

debug output - to activate it, you now have to enable it in the kernel
settings file ("bochs_debug_output true").
Reimplemented the serial output so that it's flexible towards the base
port at run time.
Implemented support for kernel settings "serial_debug_port" (which can
now also be an index in the BIOS provided serial ports list), and
"serial_debug_speed".
That also means that you can finally use the same kernel executable
under BeOS Bochs and on a real system without any restrictions.

Also added a ToDo comment about a required mutex API change in order to
be able to return a status that indicates failure.

parameter for now).
It will be the app_server's responsibility to keep this file up to date.
This file should no longer be edited by users.

The driver settings are put into the kernel_args memory section and
copied on kernel startup.

It will now load all settings in the kernel driver settings directory
and pass them over to the kernel (unparsed).
Additionally, it allows other parts of the boot loader to access
driver_settings just like in the kernel.
Moved the switch to the logo in the boot loader much further to the end
of the boot loader's life cycle. This is done so that the boot loader
can directly use the video mode as configured in Haiku, without a jumping
logo. Since the delay will be noticeable on a real system, we might want
to introduce a second different boot logo, though. We'll see.
stdio.cpp now also exports errno (and _errnop). Might be changed to a
different approach later as well (it's now done this way so that strtol.o
can be taken over unchanged from libroot.so).

When compiled in the kernel, driver settings are cached and may be used
without disk access at all.
Added some comments.

Also fixed a potential bug when reading across page bounds (pageOffset
might not have been properly reset).
Added some more comments and ToDo items.
