Renamed syscall_parameters_info structure to extended_syscall_info (and
kSyscallParametersInfos to kExtendedSyscallInfos) and added "name"
field. Now the classes for syscall kernel tracing don't need to lookup
the syscall function symbol anymore, which speeds up printing/filtering
of those entries dramatically.

Generate a kernel array kSyscallParametersInfos containing information
about syscall parameters. Particularly interesting is a type_code field
for each parameter. The mechanism isn't very accurate, but we can
classify everything in string, pointer, and integer types.

Merged branch haiku/branches/developer/bonefish/optimization revision
23139 into trunk, with roughly the following changes (for details svn
log the branch):
* The int 99 syscall handler is now fully in assembly.
* Added a sysenter/sysexit handler and use it on Pentiums that support
it (via commpage).
* Got rid of i386_handle_trap(). A bit of functionality was moved into
the assembly handler which now uses a jump table to call C functions
handling the respective interrupt.
* Some optimizations to get user debugger support code out of the
interrupt handling path.
* Introduced a thread::flags fields which allows to skip handling of
rare events (signals, user debug enabling/disabling) on the
common interrupt handling path.
* Got rid of the explicit iframe stack. The iframes can still be
retrieved by iterating through the stack frames.
* Made the commpage an architecture independent feature. It's used for
the real time data stuff (instead of creating a separate area).
* The x86 CPU modules can now provide processor optimized versions for
common functions (currently memcpy() only). They are used in the
kernel and are provided to the userland via commpage entries.
* Introduced build system feature allowing easy use of C structure
member offsets in assembly code.

Changes after merging:
* Fixed merge conflict in src/system/kernel/arch/x86/arch_debug.cpp
(caused by refactoring and introduction of "call" debugger command).

Housekeeping changes and small bug-fixes:
Added new syscall for set_thread_priority().
Replaced the userland syscall snooze_until() with snooze_etc() (the latter
has to be exported to userland and realize snooze() and snooze_until()).
Cleaned the sources - scheduler functions now have the scheduler_ prefix.
Moved signal related stuff into ksignal.h (out of thread.h).
Replaced public kernel API with direct exports (i.e. resume_thread() instead
of thread_resume_thread()).
Removed the thread_create_XXX_thread*() calls, and replaced them with a
BeOS compatible set.
Made some fields of struct thread a bit prettier.
