4528 - commandline arguments working natively
Turns out I had totally the wrong idea. The stack at the start of the program
doesn't contain 2 words, one for argc and a second for argv that must then
be dereferenced to get to its contents (each a pointer to a string). It
contains a word for argc, one for argv[0], another for argv[1], and so
on.

Many thanks to Jeremiah Orians and the #bootstrappable channel on freenode
for showing me https://github.com/oriansj/mescc-tools/blob/master/test/test5/exec_enable_amd64.M1
which set me straight. I could just pop the args like that example does,
but it seems slightly more elegant, given the current calling convention,
to assume the imaginary caller handles the popping.
