Baremetal is now the default build target and therefore has its sources
at the top-level. Baremetal programs build using the phase-2 Mu toolchain
that requires a Linux kernel. This phase-2 codebase which used to be at
the top-level is now under the linux/ directory. Finally, the phase-2 toolchain,
while self-hosting, has a way to bootstrap from a C implementation, which
is now stored in linux/bootstrap. The bootstrap C implementation uses some
literate programming tools that are now in linux/bootstrap/tools.
So the whole thing has gotten inverted. Each directory should build one
artifact and include the main sources (along with standard library). Tools
used for building it are relegated to sub-directories, even though those
tools are often useful in their own right, and have had lots of interesting
programs written using them.
A couple of things have gotten dropped in this process:
- I had old ways to run on just a Linux kernel, or with a Soso kernel.
No more.
- I had some old tooling for running a single test at the cursor. I haven't
used that lately. Maybe I'll bring it back one day.
The reorg isn't done yet. Still to do:
- redo documentation everywhere. All the README files, all other markdown,
particularly vocabulary.md.
- clean up how-to-run comments at the start of programs everywhere
- rethink what to do with the html/ directory. Do we even want to keep
supporting it?
In spite of these shortcomings, all the scripts at the top-level, linux/
and linux/bootstrap are working. The names of the scripts also feel reasonable.
This is a good milestone to take stock at.

Make some room for a mouse handler.

This was tedious for three reasons beyond the usual one of having to
track and update offsets several time while I debug:
- The Bochs troubles of the previous commit kept polluting my brain
even though they were irrelevant.
- I had to keep some changes locally to allow myself to use Bochs,
which polluted my working directory.
- I had to travel the long way to the realization that I'm not
actually initializing the stack anywhere. BIOS was starting my stack
off at 0x10000, which was promptly clobbered by my second read from
disk.
The good news: while I'm here I grow the interrupt descriptor table. So
I don't have to go through this exercise when I get back to supporting
the mouse.

Bochs is still broken, but before we can fix it we need to make some
room in the boot sector. So we'll spend a few commits reorganizing
things.

It's not really manageable to make the fake screen pixel-oriented. Feels
excessive to compare things pixel by pixel when we will mostly be
writing text to screen. It'll also make expected screen assertions
more difficult to manage.
So I'm not sure how to make assertions about pixels for now. Instead
we'll introduce fake screens at draw-grapheme.

The ol' 8-byte-register-names issue strikes again. There's no way to access
the lower 8 bits of ESI.
There's still a bug in baremetal/ex2.mu; it's printing transposed somehow.

It doesn't _quite_ do what it should, so this is more precisely the first
_buggy_ baremetal Mu program. But the tooling works, at least.
