This was hiding on the serenityos.org website previously, where not
many people found it. Let's put it in a more natural location, and
also make sure to link to it from the README.
The current ProtocolServer was really only used for requests, and with
the recent introduction of the WebSocket service, long-lasting
connections with another server are not part of it. To better reflect
this, this commit renames it to RequestServer.
This commit also changes the existing 'protocol' portal to 'request',
the existing 'protocol' user and group to 'request', and most mentions
of the 'download' aspect of the request to 'request' when relevant, to
make everything consistent across the system.
Note that LibProtocol still exists as-is, but the more generic Client
class and the more specific Download class have both been renamed to a
more accurate RequestClient and Request to match the new names.
This commit only change names, not behaviors.

This command line flag can be used to disable VirtIO support on
certain configurations (native windows) where interfacing with
virtio devices can cause qemu to freeze.
Helps with bare metal debugging, as we can't be sure our implementation
will work with a given machine.
As reported by someone on Discord, their machine hangs when we attempt
the dummy transfer.
We do support AHCI now, but the implementation could be incomplete for
some chipsets.
Also, we should write the acronym "Non-volatile Memory Express" as
NVMe. not NVME.
If you don't need/want to use Fuse+ex2 then half of the existing
install command is unnecessary, and it's hard to pick out which you
do and don't need to, for example, build Lagom. This makes it clear
which commands you can skip if you don't need ex2 support.
- Fix headings
- Consistent & more accurate code block language specifiers
- Add some newlines where appropriate
- Remove the strange "run ninja but actually you don't have to run ninja
as ninja install takes care of that" part
- Don't repeat specific build commands in "Ports" section
- Reword "Keymap" section to more generic "Customize disk image"
The QEMU's `--accel hvf` command was recently enabled in the `run.sh`
script, but it sadly doesn't work on macOS Big Sur: you need to first
sign your code by adding an `entitlements.xml` file and running a
simple command.
Including 'Build/' is unfortunate, but this seems to be what everyone does,
short of creating a symlink/hardlink from /AK/Debug.h to /Build/AK/Debug.h.
This feels like a crutch, but it's a better crutch than having a workaround
that could easily break or corrupt commits (i.e., the symlinks).
