fc03b45a71 POSIX: make readv() and writev() conform to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001
The standardized version of readv() and writev() take an int as the third
parameter. Arguably a size_t makes more sense, but the standardization bodies
decided otherwise.

The non-standard functions of readv_pos() and writev_pos() have been updated
for consistency. The corresponding _kern_readv() and _kern_writev() internal
functions continue to take the size_t parameter.

The ABI will not change, even though on 64 bit machines the size of the count
parameter will change from 8 to 4 bytes.

The actual use will be slightly different. Like with the size_t argument type,
it will not be possible to give a count lower than 0. If the value is less than
0, then the B_BAD_VALUE/EINVAL error will be set.

a38a92c955 Beginnings of a new, better portable FS shell with Haiku FS interface.
Doesn't do anything ATM, but already provides the required system
interface (VFS, caches, POSIX functions).
