b45242c50f Add chroot support to core
Since the recent move of the process creation into core, the original chroot trampoline
mechanism implemented in 'os/src/app/chroot' does not work anymore. A
process could simply escape the chroot environment by spawning a new
process via core's PD service. Therefore, this patch moves the chroot
support into core. So the chroot policy becomes mandatory part of the
process creation.  For each process created by core, core checks for
'root' argument of the PD session. If a path is present, core takes the
precautions needed to execute the new process in the specified chroot
environment.

This conceptual change implies minor changes with respect to the Genode
API and the configuration of the init process. The API changes are the
enhancement of the 'Genode::Child' and 'Genode::Process' constructors to
take the root path as argument. Init supports the specification of a
chroot per process by specifying the new 'root' attribute to the
'<start>' node of the process. In line with these changes, the
'Loader::Session::start' function has been enhanced with the additional
(optional) root argument.

4d5d91efef Fix: _session_list in child.h must be locked
The _session_list can be modified concurrently,
so the iteration over the list must be locked.

e4f28625e3 Construct process member as late as possible
When creating a 'Child' object with an already active entrypoint,
session requests may arrive as soon as the '_process' is created. We
have to make sure that at least all parts of the 'Child' object needed
for serving 'session' requests are constructed. This is particularly
important for the '_policy' member.

This patch is needed to use children as services in a dynamic
way (closing and reopening sessions).

e4cefe58d5 Make Child's reference RAM session configurable
The 'Child' framework used to perform the transfer of session quota
using 'env()->ram_session()' as hard-wired reference account. When
locally virtualizing the RAM session supplied to the 'Child', this
policy does not work. When closing a session, core would try to transfer
session quota to the virtualized RAM service, which is of course not
possible. This patch makes the reference RAM session configable via the
'Child_policy' interface.
