1fc2612667 Kernel: Make DiskBackedFS::read_block() write to client-provided memory
Instead of having DiskBackedFS allocate a ByteBuffer, leave it to each
client to provide buffer space.

This is significantly faster in many cases where we can use a stack
buffer and avoid heap allocation entirely.

a61f6ccc27 Kernel: Implement a simpler, bigger cache for DiskBackedFS
The hashmap cache was ridiculously slow and hurt us more than it helped
us. This patch replaces it with a flat memory cache that keeps up to
10'000 blocks in cache with a simple dirty bit.

The syncd task will wake up periodically and call flush_writes() on all
file systems, which now causes us to traverse the cache and write all
dirty blocks to disk.

There's a ton of room for improvement here, but this itself is already
drastically better when doing repeated GCC invocations.

c0bfea1b5c FileSystem: Move block_size() from DiskBackedFS to FS
Let's just say that all filesystems have a block size, to keep things
nice and simple.

44673c4f3b Kernel: Add a write cache to DiskBackedFS.
This way you can spam small write()s on a file without the kernel writing
to disk every single time. Flushes are included in the FS::sync() operation
and will get triggered regularly by syncd. :^)
