# write: like _write, but also support in-memory streams in addition to file
# descriptors.
#
# Our first dependency-injected and testable primitive. We can pass it either
# a file descriptor or an address to a stream. If a file descriptor is passed
# in, we _write to it using the right syscall. If a 'fake file descriptor' or
# stream is passed in, we append to the stream. This lets us redirect output
# in tests and check it later.
#
# We assume our data segment will never begin at an address shorter than
# 0x08000000, so any smaller arguments are assumed to be real file descriptors.
#
# A stream looks like this:
#   read: int  # index at which to read next
#   write: int  # index at which writes go
#   data: (array byte)  # prefixed by size as usual
