LazyFixup now ensures all app pages are mapped in before handing
on a real (no-lazy) abort. This allows an abort handler in app
space itself, without scrambling the details of the original
abort (via a lazy abort in abort mode).
Many a happy minute spent coding and testing for recursive
aborts and fixups, but lets just pretend it doesn't happen
shall we.
Tested with simple popbang code on ARM9 desktop build.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.36. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_36'

  hooks to give correct mapping info for OS_Memory 0
  same for OS_ReadMemMapEntries
  same for OS_FindMemMapEntries
  Lazy fixup routine no longer assumes an abort in current
  app space must be a truant page. However, work in this
  area not complete (no support yet for abort handler code
  in app space itself, eg. for C trampoline)
Good to know this will be a big performance boost when
our products use one monolithic application (sarcasm).

Reimplement Lazy task swapping, an amusing idea from Ursula, would have done it sooner but couldn't be bothered (humour).

Currently activates for all ARMs flagged as base-restored
abort model. No handling of eg. StrongARM pre-revT bug, but
then the kernel no longer runs on StrongARM (progress).
Still some details to fix: all aborts in current app space
assumed to be missing pages, but this must be fixed to
handle abort code in app space, things like debuggers
marking code read only.

Plus, small fixes:
  OS_Memory 8 returns vaguely useful info for RAM,VRAM
  in HAL build (temporary partial implementation)
  Broken handling of old BBC commands with (fx,tv etc)
  with no spaces fixed (fudgeulike code from Ursula,
  now 32-bit).

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.12. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_12'

more use of ARMops in page manipulation, change register usage of ARmops tested by kernel boot to star prompt only

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.11. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_11'

More stuff. Up to the desktop now; cache on, working keyboard. Some source restructuring to start to make splitting it up into several object files more feasible.
