The generalization of interrupt objects in the kernel and the use of
C++ polymorphism instead of explicitely checking for special interrupts
within generic code (Cpu_job::_interrupt) enables the registration of
additional interrupts used by the kernel, which are needed for specific
aspects added to the kernel, like ARM hardware virtualization interrupts.
* Introduce generic base class for interrupt objects handled by the kernel
* Derive an interrupt class for those handled by the user-land
* Implement IPI-specific interrupt class
* Implement timer interrupts using the new generic base class
