Stefan Kalkowski e61a3db30d hw: separate function declaration/implementation
Move kernel object functions from its headers to compilation units,

Stefan Kalkowski c850462f43 hw: replace kernel's object id allocators
Instead of having an ID allocator per object class use one global allocator for
all. Thereby artificial limitations for the different object types are
superfluent. Moreover, replace the base-hw specific id allocator implementation
with the generic Bit_allocator, which is also memory saving.

Stefan Kalkowski 7582396e9c hw_arndale: enable ARM virtualization extensions
* enables world-switch using ARM virtualization extensions
* split TrustZone and virtualization extensions hardly from platforms,
  where it is not used
* extend 'Vm_session' interface to enable configuration of guest-physical memory
* introduce VM destruction syscall
* add virtual machine monitor for hw_arndale that emulates a simplified version
  of ARM's Versatile Express Cortex A15 board for a Linux guest OS
