ac7ce12123 Kernel: Remove the kmalloc_eternal heap :^)
This was a premature optimization from the early days of SerenityOS.
The eternal heap was a simple bump pointer allocator over a static
byte array. My original idea was to avoid heap fragmentation and improve
data locality, but both ideas were rooted in cargo culting, not data.

We would reserve 4 MiB at boot and only ended up using ~256 KiB, wasting
the rest.

This patch replaces all kmalloc_eternal() usage by regular kmalloc().

e34eb3e36d Kernel: Remove unused String.h includes
This makes searching for not yet OOM safe interfaces a bit easier.

78e724a899 Kernel/Graphics: Rename GraphicsDevice => GenericGraphicsAdapter
We already use the term adapter for instances of this class, so let's
better represent this class by changing its name to what it really is.

a9538b5879 Kernel/Graphics: Convert type method => bool vga compatible method
We never used that type method except in initialization in
GraphicsManagement, and we used it there to query whether the device is
VGA compatible or not.

057f5a12c2 Kernel/PCI: Propagate usage of DeviceIdentifier everywhere
This allows us to remove a bunch of PCI API functions, and instead to
leverage the cached data from DeviceIdentifier object in many places.

bb58a4d943 Kernel: Make all Spinlocks use u8 for storage, remove template
The default template argument is only used in one place, and it
looks like it was probably just an oversight. The rest of the Kernel
code all uses u8 as the type. So lets make that the default and remove
the unused template argument, as there doesn't seem to be a reason to
allow the size to be customizable.

aacb1f0bf4 Kernel: Rename PCI::DeviceController => PCI::Device
Now that the old PCI::Device was removed, we can complete the PCI
changes by making the PCI::DeviceController to be named PCI::Device.

Really the entire purpose and the distinction between the two was about
interrupts, but since this is no longer a problem, just rename it to
simplify things further.
