3bbf4610d2 AK: Add a forward declaration header
You can now #include <AK/Forward.h> to get most of the AK types as
forward declarations.

Header dependency explosion is one of the main contributors to compile
times at the moment, so this is a step towards smaller include graphs.

94ca55cefd Meta: Add license header to source files
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.

For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.

Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.

2e349337d3 LibELF: Map .text segment with MAP_ANONYMOUS for shared objects
We need to workaround the fact that MAP_PRIVATE when passed a file
descriptor doesn't work the way we expect. We can't change the
permissions on our mmap to PROT_WRITE if the original executable doesn't
have PROT_WRITE.

Because of this, we need to construct our ELFDynamicObject using the
actual virtual address of the .dynamic section, instead of using the
offset into the ELFImage that was actually getting modified by accident
...somehow. Not clear what was going on.

767f4c7421 LibELF+LibC: Split ELFDynamicObject into a Loader + Object
Separate some responsibilities:

ELFDynamicLoader is responsible for loading elf binaries from disk and
performing relocations, calling init functions, and eventually calling
finalizer functions.

ELFDynamicObject is a helper class to parse the .dynamic section of an
elf binary, or the table of Elf32_Dyn entries at the _DYNAMIC symbol.
ELFDynamicObject now owns the helper classes for Relocations, Symbols,
Sections and the like that ELFDynamicLoader will use to perform
relocations and symbol lookup.

Because these new helpers are constructed from offsets into the .dynamic
section within the loaded .data section of the binary, we don't need the
ELFImage for nearly as much of the loading processes as we did before.
Therefore we can remove most of the extra DynamicXXX classes and just
keep the one that lets us find the location of _DYNAMIC in the new ELF.

And finally, since we changed the name of the class that dlopen/dlsym
care about, we need to compile/link and use the new ELFDynamicLoader
class in LibC.
