This patch converts the loader implementation to the 'Session_object' interface to implement the ability to upgrade the session caps and RAM after after the session creation. This is needed to accommodate the change of the Loader::Connection in commit "Remove format strings from connection types". Issue #2064
This directory contains a loader service, which allows for the instantiation of subsystems via a session interface. The resources for the new subsystem are provided by the client when opening the session. The client has no control over the functioning of the subsystem except for the controlling the lifetime of the subsystem. By default, the loaded subsystem can access only those ROM modules that were loaded into the loader session by the loader client. However, it is possible to define a whitelist of ROM modules to be obtained from the loader's parent. For an example, refer to the example 'run/loader.run' script.
