Christian Helmuth 24b1f269be Remove Packet_ref from File_system::Packet_descriptor
The intention of Packet_ref was to allow clients to place opaque
references into the packet descriptor itself, which could be observed on
packet completion. Currently no component in our sources uses this
feature and beyond that it is questionable if it should be used at all:
If the server tampers with the ref the client may easily be confused
into observing an incorrect or invalid context. It seems better to
remove the opaque context from the descriptor and leave the actual
implementation to the client and its needs.

This is the example operating system based on the Genode OS framework:

:_Init_: is the first real process in the system. The provided implementation
  uses a very simple XML parser to read its configuration files.

:_Drivers_: The example OS has basic drivers for frame buffer, mouse and
  keyboard input, the PCI bus, the real-time clock, and system-specific timers.

:_Server_: The only server in the example OS is Nitpicker, a
  minimal-complexity GUI server.

:_Test_: are also part of the example OS. You may have a look at the fork
  bomb as a simple system stress test.

:_Ldso_: is the dynamic linker used for loading executables that are linked
  against shared libraries.

:_Lib_: contains libraries used by the components of the OS repository,
  for example, the alarm framework.
