Modify userspace .org and RAMSTART expectations

Instead of expecting a `USER_CODE` symbol to be set, we expect `.org` to be
set in all userspace glue code. This gives us more flexibility with regards to
how we manage that.

Moreover, instead of making `USER_RAMSTART` mandatory, we make it default to
the end of the binary, which is adequate in a majority of cases.

Will be useful for my upcoming mega-commit... :)

## Userspace convention
We execute a userspace application by calling the address it's loaded into. This
means: a userspace application is expected to return.
We execute a userspace application by calling the address it's loaded into.
This means that userspace applications must be assembled with a proper `.org`,
otherwise labels in its code will be wrong.
The `.org`, it is not specified by glue code of the apps themselves. It is
expected to be set either in the `user.h` file to through `zasm` 3rd argument.
That a userspace is called also means that an application, when finished
running, is expected to return with a regular `ret` and a clean stack.
Whatever calls the userspace app (usually, it will be the shell), should set
HL to a pointer to unparsed arguments in string form, null terminated.

Apps in Collapse OS are design to be ROM-compatible, that is, they don't write
to addresses that are part of the code's address space.
By default, apps set their RAM to begin at the end of the binary because in
most cases, these apps will be ran from RAM. If they're ran from ROM, make sure
to set `USER_RAMSTART` properly in your `user.h` to ensure that the RAM is
placed properly.
