8020462748 Linux: Build hybrid library with Genode tool chain
Using the host compiler in this case seems to be an artifact from an
older change. On x86_64, this approach ended in unsable hybrid binaries
due to incompatible handling of non-trivial return values, i.e.
structures. See '-freg-struct-return' in GCC manual page:

  "[...] If there is no standard convention, GCC defaults to
  -fpcc-struct-return, except on targets where GCC is the principal
  compiler.  In those cases, we can choose the standard, and we chose
  the more efficient register return alternative."

In other words: All x86_64 Linux systems break the ABI standard :-(

de69ee2e66 Linux: cleanup system-call bindings
This patch simplifies the system call bindings. The common syscall
bindings in 'src/platform/' have been reduced to the syscalls needed by
non-core programs. The additional syscalls that are needed solely by
core have been moved to 'src/core/include/core_linux_syscalls.h'.
Furthermore, the resource path is not used outside of core anymore.
Hence, we could get rid of the rpath library. The resource-path code has
been moved to 'src/core/include/resource_path.h'. The IPC-related parts
of 'src/platform' have been moved to the IPC library. So there is now a
clean separation between low-level syscall bindings (in 'src/platform')
and higher-level code.

The code for the socket-descriptor registry is now located in the
'src/base/ipc/socket_descriptor_registry.h' header. The interface is
separated from 'ipc.cc' because core needs to access the registry from
outside the ipc library.

42b7c01685 Unify policy name for Native_capability_tpl.
This commit unifies the policy name for the template argument for
Native_capability_tpl to Cap_dst_policy, like suggested by Norman in the
discussion resulting from issue #145. Moreover, it takes the memcpy
operation for copying a Native_capability out of the template, which is
included by a significant bunch of files, and separates it in a library,
analog to the suggestion in issue #145.
