bf58241c11 Port the WindowServer and LibGUI to communicate through local sockets.
This is really cool! :^)

Apps currently refuse to start if the WindowServer isn't listening on the
socket in /wsportal. This makes sense, but I guess it would also be nice
to have some sort of "wait for server on startup" mode.

This has performance issues, and I'll work on those, but this stuff seems
to actually work and I'm very happy with that.

c4fce9b3f9 Make stat() work on device files again.
FileDescriptor will now keep a pointer to the original inode even after
opening it resolves to a character device.

Fixed up /bin/ls to display major and minor device numbers instead of size
for device files.

b4e478aa50 Deallocate PTY's when they close.
This required a fair bit of plumbing. The CharacterDevice::close() virtual
will now be closed by ~FileDescriptor(), allowing device implementations to
do custom cleanup at that point.

One big problem remains: if the master PTY is closed before the slave PTY,
we go into crashy land.

8bb18fdc56 Kernel: Get rid of Unix namespace.
This is no longer needed as the Kernel can stand on its own legs now
and there won't be any conflict with host system data types.
