9958 97 d 2 h dunkaist / Switch to the unified (BIOS and UEFI) kernel image

The initial patch by bzt with my minor edits.
 
9943 210 d 7 h turbocat /kernel/trunk/boot/ Fixed typo in "blue screen"  
9942 210 d 9 h turbocat /kernel/trunk/ Fixed a "blue screen" hang when trying to write a configuration to a read-only device  
9938 219 d 4 h leency /kernel/trunk/boot/ Starting Blue screen:
- The next message was improved: "New settings have been applied. Do you want to record them for the future boots? Answer 'yes' only if your booting device is writable." to avoid users saving changes on CD. This is a bug 'cos normally such behaviour must be handeled in the code http://board.kolibrios.org/viewtopic.php?p=80012#p80012
- Hide option "Create blank image" which is outdated now
 
9249 897 d 4 h Boppan /kernel/trunk/ [KERNEL] Add test framework  
8224 1247 d 0 h dunkaist /kernel/trunk/ Fix hardcoded $Revision: XXXX$ values.  
8175 1255 d 6 h dunkaist /kernel/trunk/ extended_primary_loader: Fix handling of 'resolution' option.  
8111 1276 d 14 h dunkaist /kernel/trunk/ kernel: Split acpi.inc and hpet.inc from init.inc.

Also, replace some hardcoded constants with macros.
 
8092 1292 d 0 h dunkaist / uefi4kos: Read config and kernel files from the disk.

* Now there is a config file with boot options, example included.
* Config, kernel and ramdisk are loaded from the disk, not compiled in.
* DEVICES.DAT file is also optionally loaded from the disk.
* Also, move the loader to /kernel/trunk/bootloader/uefi4kos.
 
8091 1293 d 11 h dunkaist / Add extended_primary_loader to autobuild.

* Build fat1x, fat32, cdfs, after_win loaders.
* Set use_lba=1 by default in fat32 loader.
* Build kolibri.raw: flash / hdd image.
* Add example config.ini file.
* Add an option (config file and screen) to not load ramdisk image.
* Add an option (config file only) to set /sys path.

Now you can boot without a ramdisk from a storage that is supported
by the kernel itself, i.e. without loadable drivers. Thus you can not
load the system without a ramdisk from SATA/AHCI and USB drives.
 
8089 1295 d 15 h dunkaist /kernel/trunk/ kernel: don't use ramdisk if asked.

The blue screen is not aware of this option.
 
8086 1295 d 16 h dunkaist /kernel/trunk/ Fix random boot issue: 'Failed to start first app'

Access to BOOT.dev variable was sometimes done with obsolete
offset from non-flat-kernel ages. If you are unlucky, the ramdisk
is not loaded and launcher app is not started.
 
7734 1509 d 6 h dunkaist /kernel/trunk/boot/ kernel: Implement reboot via fixed Reset register in FADT table if available.

The code expects the register is in system_io space.
Other options are not implemented but it works on my computer (c).
 
7731 1510 d 0 h dunkaist /kernel/trunk/boot/ uefi4kos: Increase the number of searched PCI buses.  
7692 1683 d 9 h kaitz /kernel/trunk/boot/ et translation  
7586 1883 d 5 h dunkaist /kernel/trunk/ Do not hardcode preboot timeout, use PREBOOT_TIMEOUT macro.  
7136 2313 d 3 h dunkaist /kernel/trunk/ Replace 'equ' macros with '=' ones.

They appear in symbols file.
They don't require parentheses.
They are shorter.
 
7132 2316 d 2 h dunkaist /kernel/trunk/ Update BOOT_DATA structure and use it instead of all the BOOT_* vars.  
7130 2316 d 7 h dunkaist / Add UEFI stuff.  
7129 2316 d 8 h dunkaist /kernel/trunk/ Split bootbios.asm and kernel.asm.

* Move bios-related part of kernel.asm before B32 label to
bootbios.asm file;
* Move bx_from_load, boot_dev and kernel_restart_bootblock variables
to BOOT_* 0x9000 block;
* Update Tupfile.lua, Makefile, build.bat, build.sh accordingly;
* Now bios and uefi loaders can jump to very first byte of the kernel.
