32aa37d5dc Kernel+LibC: Add msync() system call
This allows userspace to trigger a full (FIXME) flush of a shared file
mapping to disk. We iterate over all the mapped pages in the VMObject
and write them out to the underlying inode, one by one. This is rather
naive, and there's lots of room for improvement.

Note that shared file mappings are currently not possible since mmap()
returns ENOTSUP for PROT_WRITE+MAP_SHARED. That restriction will be
removed in a subsequent commit. :^)

79fa9765ca Kernel: Replace KResult and KResultOr<T> with Error and ErrorOr<T>
We now use AK::Error and AK::ErrorOr<T> in both kernel and userspace!
This was a slightly tedious refactoring that took a long time, so it's
not unlikely that some bugs crept in.

Nevertheless, it does pass basic functionality testing, and it's just
real nice to finally see the same pattern in all contexts. :^)

4bfd6e41b9 Kernel: Make Kernel::VMObject allocation functions return KResultOr
This makes for nicer handling of errors compared to checking whether a
RefPtr is null. Additionally, this will give way to return different
types of errors in the future.

a1d7ebf85a Kernel: Rename Kernel/VM/ to Kernel/Memory/
This directory isn't just about virtual memory, it's about all kinds
of memory management.
