Kernel

• KPoolManager was completely rewritten.

• KHandleTable default size was improved from 40 to 1024.
• The code to create a bigger handle table in allocated pool memory has been removed.

• KHandleTable compresses 64-bit pointers into 32-bit offsets.

• KAddressSpace was renamed to KDeviceAddressSpace.

• KSharedMemory now doesn't incref for each map.
  • Instead it maintains a list of every map (each 0x20-byte entry).
  • Probably to do better cleanup.

  • Creation doesn't use KIrqSingleton directly anymore.
  • Instead it allocates a 0x20-byte entry, and then uses KIrqSingleton.
  • Probaly to do better cleanup.
