Feature: self hosting prototype implemented
This is a large change. In order to remove myself from libc's arcane interface, I implemented an independent runtime layer. It is based on musl's wonderful implementation mostly. Critically, if libc is linked to the program, then we cooperate. Namely, we call start main and let libc do all initialization. If not, then we have a noop defined in rt3.a. The general structure of the file is: 1. sys/$os/$arch contains all architecture dependent code 2. sys/$os/port contains all code that depends on the os, but is portable 3. rt/$arch contains all the runtime architecture dependent code 4. rt/* contains the portable runtime code. Obviously testing is needed. Specifically, while code is checked in for the most popular architectures, it only has been tested on one computer! Overall this is exciting and as been educational.
