+ Had some minor issues with a wraparound of size_t that effectively meant that some regions were allocated twice. Also, booting should be a bit more reliable now, turned out that the previous iteration of the booting was just accidentally working due to the kernel being placed 'close enough' in RAM to where it was linked to. Fixed by allocating a vmem of O1 that maps the kernel to a 2MiB boundary at boot, pretty nifty.

+ Took some fairly significant changes, for one the kernel is no longer relocated at the start of a boot, instead it sits wherever the user decides the kernel should sit. Similarly, the initial kernel stack and page table are stored within the binary, slightly bloating the size but making it much safer to boot since there's really no chance of us overwriting the fdt or initrd in memory.
