Josef Söntgen c25c4e3411 ram_blk: transition to the new base API
In addition to modernizing the component now also supports using
empty RAM dataspace as backing store.

For example to use an ISO file the component has to be configured
as follows:

! <config file="image.iso" block_size="2048"/>

To use a empty RAM dataspace that is 256MiB large and has a block
size of 4KiB the configuration looks like this:

! <config size="256M" block_size="4096"/>

Either 'size' or 'file' has to specified. If both are declared the
'file' attribute is soley evaluated.

Issue #1987.

Fixes #2031.

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.
