In the past, the core-only privileged syscall `update_pd` was used only
to invalidate the TLB after removal of page-table entries.
By now, the whole TLB at least for one protection domain got invalidated,
but in preparation for optimization and upcomingARM v8 support,
it is necessary to deliver the virtual memory region that needs to get
invalidated. Moreover, the name of the call shall represent explicitely
that it is used to invalidate the TLB.

There are still nightly tests like test-tcp_bulk_lxip on sel4 x86_64 qemu
that manage to hit the test timeout of the run script although the test was
successful. So, raise the extra time added by the run script to 30 seconds.
Ref #3411
Some platforms (sel4 imx6/imx7) cannot manage to execute all tests in a single
boot. Thus, we re-boot them periodically after a given maximum number of tests
to avoid that arbitrary tests always fail due to the long uptime and not due to
the tests themselves.
If the maximum number of tests is set to 0, no limit is applied.
Fixes#3411
If a path element cannot be watched because it does not exist yet, the next
available parent directory is watched to detect the creation of the missing
path element. If a missing path element got created just between the failed
watch request for the element and the successful watch request for its parent
directory, the creation of the path element could remain unnoticed.
With this commit, 'fs_rom' tries to watch a path element again if the watch
request for its parent directory was successful.
Fixes#3398
The lazy-timer test depends on the faster-timer handler to be executed
before the fast timeout occurs, which was pretty hard to achieve on Qemu
and a busy host machine. Therefore, I increased the fast-to-faster
timeout ratio from 50/25 ms to 200/25 ms and set the test runtime to
4000 ms.
Move the _vfs_sync implementation from vfs_plugin.h to vfs_plugin.cc and
wrap all VFS access in the VFS_THREAD_SAFE macro.
Syncing must be made thread safe because it often happens when closing
files and may require suspending the current thread for I/O signal
dispatching.

- use priorities solely with nova
- handle exceptions during vCPU creation
- avoid assertion in vga_vbda
- silence compiler warnings about outdated register keyword
Issue #3111
The terminal now got a configurable palette for 16 colors (8 normal, 8
bright/bold).
<config>
<palette>
<color index="0" value="#000000"/> <!-- black is real black -->
<color index="8" value="#101010"/> <!-- bright black stands out a bit -->
</palette>
</config>
Note, the old (undocumented) <color index="..." bg="..."> configuration
scheme is no longer supported.
Also, this commit adds a pleasing default palette that ensures
readability of ViM's standard hightlighting.
Fixes#3406
Instead of hosting our outdated own fork, this commit now uses kernkonzept's
nowadays available github source repositories. This hopefully simplifies
updates, or cherry-picking single fixes.
