kernel: implement separate wait queues for page allocation
give kernel processes and local disk file servers (procs
having noswap flag set) a clear advantage for page allocation
under starved condition by giving them ther own wait queue so
they get readied as soon as pages become available.

hjfs: defer parent directory permission check for wstat
check parent directory permission *after* we determined
that the new name does not exist in the parent, so that
when the new name is the same as old name then no write
permission is required in the parent directory.

ndb/dns: cleanup forwarding code (redistrib())
instead of copying the whole packet, just save the
udp header and restore it aftwards. dont call redistrib()
when there are no forwards (this should be almost always
the case).

games/doom: fix desyncing demo (thanks qwx)
the code used P_Random()-P_Random() in some places which has
undefined evaluation order resulting in the wrong pseudo random
numbers being returned causing demo playback to desync.
this change adds P_Random2() function which returns the right
delta-random number and uses it in place of P_Random()-P_Random()
expression.

disk/edisk: fix blank mode
there where two problems with blank (-b flag):
we did not update the backup header when there was already a valid
backup header in place. we always want to initialize a new backup header
in blank mode!
we now also check the backup header matches the primary (or the other
way arround depending on which header could be read), reporting any
mismatches and restoring the backup from the data of the primary.
the protective mbr needs to start at sector 1 not 0 (apparently, this
matters for ovmf).

rc-httpd: various fixes
care has to be taken when splitting the host into SERVER_NAME and SERVER_PORT,
as ipv6 uses : in the host part. also do it consistently, the host can be set
thru the request uri and the host header.
set REMOTE_USER to empty string to prevent accidents.
we do not handle chunked transfer encoding, just assuming the client doesnt
do keep alive is wrong. we have to reject the post when the client tries
chunked post with 411 "Length required" error.

the compiler used to skip zero initialization when initializer
