596361791c Kernel: Add operator delete for KString
This doesn't change anything because our global operator delete also
calls kfree() - however instead of relying on this implementation
detail this makes this dependency more explicit.

d838a02e74 Kernel: Add KString::must_{..} factory methods
There are a bunch of places like drivers which for all intense and
purposes can't really fail allocation during boot, and if they do
fail we should crash immediately.

This change adds `KString::must_create_uninitialized(..)` as well as
`KString::must_create(..)` for use during early boot initialization of
the Kernel. They enforce that they are only used during early boot.

279383a8f3 Kernel: Add KString, a single-owner string with OOM failure exposion
This is a simple string class for use in the kernel. It encapsulates
a length + character array in a single-allocation object.

Main differences from AK::String:

- Single-owner (no reference counting.)
- Allocation failures are exposed, not hidden.

The basic idea is to allow better and more precise string management
in the kernel.
