da5cc34ebb Kernel: Fix some issues related to fixes and block conditions
Fix some problems with join blocks where the joining thread block
condition was added twice, which lead to a crash when trying to
unblock that condition a second time.

Deferred block condition evaluation by File objects were also not
properly keeping the File object alive, which lead to some random
crashes and corruption problems.

Other problems were caused by the fact that the Queued state didn't
handle signals/interruptions consistently. To solve these issues we
remove this state entirely, along with Thread::wait_on and change
the WaitQueue into a BlockCondition instead.

Also, deliver signals even if there isn't going to be a context switch
to another thread.

Fixes #4336 and #4330

046d6855f5 Kernel: Move block condition evaluation out of the Scheduler
This makes the Scheduler a lot leaner by not having to evaluate
block conditions every time it is invoked. Instead evaluate them as
the states change, and unblock threads at that point.

This also implements some more waitid/waitpid/wait features and
behavior. For example, WUNTRACED and WNOWAIT are now supported. And
wait will now not return EINTR when SIGCHLD is delivered at the
same time.

6a620562cc Kernel: Allow passing a thread argument for new kernel threads
This adds the ability to pass a pointer to kernel thread/process.
Also add the ability to use a closure as thread function, which
allows passing information to a kernel thread more easily.

6cb640eeba Kernel: Move some time related code from Scheduler into TimeManagement
Use the TimerQueue to expire blocking operations, which is one less thing
the Scheduler needs to check on every iteration.

Also, add a BlockTimeout class that will automatically handle relative or
absolute timeouts as well as overriding timeouts (e.g. socket timeouts)
more consistently.

Also, rework the TimerQueue class to be able to fire events from
any processor, which requires Timer to be RefCounted. Also allow
creating id-less timers for use by blocking operations.

838d9fa251 Kernel: Make Thread refcounted
Similar to Process, we need to make Thread refcounted. This will solve
problems that will appear once we schedule threads on more than one
processor. This allows us to hold onto threads without necessarily
holding the scheduler lock for the entire duration.

788b2d64c6 Kernel: Require a reason to be passed to Thread::wait_on
The Lock class still permits no reason, but for everything else
require a reason to be passed to Thread::wait_on. This makes it
easier to diagnose why a Thread is in Queued state.

fb41d89384 Kernel: Implement software context switching and Processor structure
Moving certain globals into a new Processor structure for
each CPU allows us to eventually run an instance of the
scheduler on each CPU.

a066dd1fac Kernel: Move sync and finalization tasks into their own files
Instead of clogging up the initialization sequence, put these tasks
in their own files.
