5ed5fddb7c base/os: remove deprecated APIs
This commit removes APIs that were previously marked as deprecated. This
change has the following implications:

- The use of the global 'env()' accessor is not possible anymore.
- Boolean accessor methods are no longer prefixed with 'is_'. E.g.,
  instead of 'is_valid()', use 'valid()'.
- The last traces of 'Ram_session' are gone now. The 'Env::ram()'
  accessor returns the 'Ram_allocator' interface, which is a subset of
  the 'Pd_session' interface.
- All connection constructors need the 'Env' as argument.
- The 'Reporter' constructor needs an 'Env' argument now because the
  reporter creates a report connection.
- The old overload 'Child_policy::resolve_session_request' that returned
  a 'Service' does not exist anymore.
- The base/printf.h header has been removed, use base/log.h instead.
- The old notion of 'Signal_dispatcher' is gone. Use 'Signal_handler'.
- Transitional headers like os/server.h, cap_session/,
  volatile_object.h, os/attached*_dataspace.h, signal_rpc_dispatcher.h
  have been removed.
- The distinction between 'Thread_state' and 'Thread_state_base' does
  not exist anymore.
- The header cpu_thread/capability.h along with the type definition of
  'Cpu_thread_capability' has been removed. Use the type
  'Thread_capability' define in cpu_session/cpu_session.h instead.
- Several XML utilities (i.e., at os/include/decorator) could be removed
  because their functionality is nowadays covered by util/xml_node.h.
- The 'os/ram_session_guard.h' has been removed.
  Use 'Constrained_ram_allocator' provided by base/ram_allocator.h instead.

9d233b73a3 nitpicker: improve 'Session::focus' handling
Nitpicker's 'Session:focus' call used to trigger a one-off focus change
at call time. This focus change did not pass the same code paths as a
focus change triggered by a "focus" ROM update, which led to
inconsistencies.

This patch changes the implementation of 'Session::focus' such that the
relationship of the caller and the focused session is preserved after
call time. Whenever the calling session is focused in the future, the
specified session will receive the focus instead. So 'Session::focus'
represents no longer a single operation but propagates the information
about the inter-session relationship. This information is taken into
account whenever the focus is evaluated regardless of how the change is
triggered.

This makes the focus handling in scenarios like the window manager more
robust.

eba9c15746 Follow practices suggested by "Effective C++"
The patch adjust the code of the base, base-<kernel>, and os repository.
To adapt existing components to fix violations of the best practices
suggested by "Effective C++" as reported by the -Weffc++ compiler
argument. The changes follow the patterns outlined below:

* A class with virtual functions can no longer publicly inherit base
  classed without a vtable. The inherited object may either be moved
  to a member variable, or inherited privately. The latter would be
  used for classes that inherit 'List::Element' or 'Avl_node'. In order
  to enable the 'List' and 'Avl_tree' to access the meta data, the
  'List' must become a friend.

* Instead of adding a virtual destructor to abstract base classes,
  we inherit the new 'Interface' class, which contains a virtual
  destructor. This way, single-line abstract base classes can stay
  as compact as they are now. The 'Interface' utility resides in
  base/include/util/interface.h.

* With the new warnings enabled, all member variables must be explicitly
  initialized. Basic types may be initialized with '='. All other types
  are initialized with braces '{ ... }' or as class initializers. If
  basic types and non-basic types appear in a row, it is nice to only
  use the brace syntax (also for basic types) and align the braces.

* If a class contains pointers as members, it must now also provide a
  copy constructor and assignment operator. In the most cases, one
  would make them private, effectively disallowing the objects to be
  copied. Unfortunately, this warning cannot be fixed be inheriting
  our existing 'Noncopyable' class (the compiler fails to detect that
  the inheriting class cannot be copied and still gives the error).
  For now, we have to manually add declarations for both the copy
  constructor and assignment operator as private class members. Those
  declarations should be prepended with a comment like this:

        /*
         * Noncopyable
         */
        Thread(Thread const &);
        Thread &operator = (Thread const &);

  In the future, we should revisit these places and try to replace
  the pointers with references. In the presence of at least one
  reference member, the compiler would no longer implicitly generate
  a copy constructor. So we could remove the manual declaration.

4d442bca30 Streamline exception types
This patch reduces the number of exception types by facilitating
globally defined exceptions for common usage patterns shared by most
services. In particular, RPC functions that demand a session-resource
upgrade not longer reflect this condition via a session-specific
exception but via the 'Out_of_ram' or 'Out_of_caps' types.

Furthermore, the 'Parent::Service_denied', 'Parent::Unavailable',
'Root::Invalid_args', 'Root::Unavailable', 'Service::Invalid_args',
'Service::Unavailable', and 'Local_service::Factory::Denied' types have
been replaced by the single 'Service_denied' exception type defined in
'session/session.h'.

This consolidation eases the error handling (there are fewer exceptions
to handle), alleviates the need to convert exceptions along the
session-creation call chain, and avoids possible aliasing problems
(catching the wrong type with the same name but living in a different
scope).

a7f40b24ca Warn about the use of deprecated env() function
This patch enables warnings if one of the deprecate functions that rely
in the implicit use of the global Genode::env() accessor are called.

For the time being, some places within the base framework continue
to rely on the global function while omitting the warning by calling
'env_deprecated' instead of 'env'.

b44f0554bd Adapt high-level components to new parent API
This patch adjusts the various users of the 'Child' API to the changes
on the account of the new non-blocking parent interface. It also removes
the use of the no-longer-available 'Connection::KEEP_OPEN' feature.

With the adjustment, we took the opportunity to redesign several
components to fit the non-blocking execution model much better, in
particular the demo applications.

a7b3072cc2 Pass Env & as first argument to connection objects
This patch supplements each existing connection type with an new
constructor that is meant to replace the original one. The new
one takes a reference to the component's environment as argument and
thereby does not rely on the presence of the globally accessible
'env()' interface.

The original constructors are marked as deprecated. Once we have
completely abolished the use of the global 'env()', we will remove them.

08d28e9b94 nitpicker: add 'session_control' RPC function
The new 'session_control' function can be used to perform operations on
the global view stack that span one or multiple sessions, e.g., bringing
all views of specific sessions to the front, or hiding them.

6b42f8b54e nitpicker: let 'Connection' track donated quota
This patch adds support for the consecutive re-dimensioning the virtual
framebuffer. When changing the buffer size, the session gets upgraded by
the missing portion of the quota instead of donating the whole size of
the new buffer each time.

1745453315 nitpicker: Layers and client-side mouse cursor
This patch introduces a mandatory layer attribute to domains. The layer
ordering is superimposed on the stacking order of the views. The
top-most layer can be assigned to a pointer-managing client. An example
for such a pointer is located at os/src/app/pointer. It replaces the
formerly built-in nitpicker mouse cursor.

The new layering mechanism replaces the former "stay-top" session
argument. So the Nitpicker::Connection no longer takes the stay-top flag
as the first argument.

24869bd3ff nitpicker: Support for session-focus management
This patch introduces a focus-management facility to the nitpicker
session interface. As a side effect of this change, we remove the notion
of a "focused view". There can only be a "focused session". This makes
sense because input is directed to sessions, not views.
