Remove old lguest I/O infrrasructure.

This patch gets rid of the old lguest host I/O infrastructure and
replaces it with a single hypercall "LHCALL_NOTIFY" which takes an
address.

The main change is the removal of io.c: that mainly did inter-guest
I/O, which virtio doesn't yet support.

- *
- * Getting data in and out of the Guest is quite an art.  There are numerous
- * ways to do it, and they all suck differently.  We try to keep things fairly

- * visitation in the middle of the Linux code, and yet make sure that Guests
- * can talk directly to other Guests, not just the Launcher.
- *
- * To do this, the Guest gives us a key when it binds or sends DMA buffers.
- * The key corresponds to a "physical" address inside the Guest (ie. a virtual
- * address inside the Launcher process).  We don't, however, use this key
- * directly.
- *
- * We want Guests which share memory to be able to DMA to each other: two
- * Launchers can mmap memory the same file, then the Guests can communicate.
- * Fortunately, the futex code provides us with a way to get a "union
- * futex_key" corresponding to the memory lying at a virtual address: if the
- * two processes share memory, the "union futex_key" for that memory will match
- * even if the memory is mapped at different addresses in each.  So we always
- * convert the keys to "union futex_key"s to compare them.
- *
- * Before we dive into this though, we need to look at another set of helper
- * routines used throughout the Host kernel code to access Guest memory.
