6354a9a030 Kernel: Mark sys$fsync() as not needing the big lock
This syscall doesn't access any data that was implicitly protected by
the big lock.

8ebec2938c Kernel: Convert process file descriptor table to a SpinlockProtected
Instead of manually locking in the various member functions of
Process::OpenFileDescriptions, simply wrap it in a SpinlockProtected.

54b9a4ec1e Kernel: Handle promise violations in the syscall handler
Previously we would crash the process immediately when a promise
violation was found during a syscall. This is error prone, as we
don't unwind the stack. This means that in certain cases we can
leak resources, like an OwnPtr / RefPtr tracked on the stack. Or
even leak a lock acquired in a ScopeLockLocker.

To remedy this situation we move the promise violation handling to
the syscall handler, right before we return to user space. This
allows the code to follow the normal unwind path, and grantees
there is no longer any cleanup that needs to occur.

The Process::require_promise() and Process::require_no_promises()
functions were modified to return ErrorOr<void> so we enforce that
the errors are always propagated by the caller.

bad6d50b86 Kernel: Use Process::require_promise() instead of REQUIRE_PROMISE()
This change lays the foundation for making the require_promise return
an error hand handling the process abort outside of the syscall
implementations, to avoid cases where we would leak resources.

It also has the advantage that it makes removes a gs pointer read
to look up the current thread, then process for every syscall. We
can instead go through the Process this pointer in most cases.

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. :^)
