019d05f64c Make the shell a userspace app
That's my mega-commit you've all been waiting for.

The code for the shell share more routines with userspace apps than with kernel
units, because, well, its behavior is that of a userspace app, not a device
driver.

This created a weird situation with libraries and jump tables. Some routine
belonging to the `kernel/` directory felt weird there.

And then comes `apps/basic`, which will likely share even more code with the
shell. I was seeing myself creating huge jump tables to reuse code from the
shell. It didn't feel right.

Moreover, we'll probably want basic-like apps to optionnally replace the shell.

So here I am with this huge change in the project structure. I didn't test all
recipes on hardware yet, I will do later. I might have broken some...

But now, the structure feels better and the line between what belongs to
`kernel` and what belongs to `apps` feels clearer.

7cf3ed38da Extract str.asm from core.asm and make core included by userspace
Most of register fiddling routines (which is now the only thing contained
in care.asm) are used by almost all userspace apps, often in inner loops.

That makes the penalty of using jump tables for those a bit too high.
Moreover, it burdens jump tables needlessly.

Because this unit is very small (now that string routines are out), it makes
sense to always include it in binaries.
