following 1152 MB - that area only guarantees that the heap can grow this much before
the application need the memory for something else. And even then, the heap range
is reused from top-to-bottom, allowing for maximum heap usage. Of course, if the
memory after the heap range is not claimed yet, it can still be claimed by the heap,
too. Added new syscall to create the reserved range.
Fixed a bug in vm_delete_areas(): when it removed reserved areas, the area list
could get messed up.
Fixed a bug in resize_area(): resized areas could never be deleted (missing vm_put_area())!
resize_area() now supports reserved regions (but not perfectly yet, see ToDo items).

only if memory becomes tight, and then the range is used from end to
start.
This is useful to reserve heap address ranges.

Renamed vm_area::lock to vm_area::protection to be less confusing - wiring
is still called wiring, though (might be renamed to lock later, as that's
how BeOS calls it).

- the above file now also exports a function to finally complete the kernel's
address space translation map after semaphores became available (was just
not done before)
- renamed some functions, especially the *_init2() functions are now called
like *_init_post_area() to indicate they are called after the area functionality
became available
- removed the _struct suffix from certain structures
- fixed some return types
- added prototype for vm_free_unused_boot_loader_range() to be called by
arch code.

This cleans the page handling when having to make an area copy-on-write;
regions belong to vm_cache_ref, pages to vm_cache.
Added prototype for new call vm_copy_area().
Fixed some return types.

Changed the way a vm_address_space is deleted: instead of having to explicitly
call vm_delete_aspace(), the last vm_put_aspace() will remove it.

syscalls or to the syscall mechanism (which exposed naming and parameter
inconsistencies).

they are now replaced by get_area_info() and the area_info structure.
get_area_info() still misses some pieces, though.
Added all missing VM user/kernel syscalls.

some broken C++ export definitions, added missing licenses etc.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@3152 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Changed the file_descriptor structure (more status_t, name removed).
Changed "extern inline" to "static inline" in thread.h/arch_thread.h as those
also work with -O0 -g.
Added prototypes for [arch_cpu_]user_strlcpy().
