file_system/fat: Rework driver for fs_shell support

* Introduce fat_shell for build system fat manipulation
* Will theoretically let us do away with mtools when we
have another internal tool for partition manipulation

fat: correctly read lowercase 8.3 filenames

Historically, FAT stored filenames as uppercase. Modern windows versions
will however be case-preserving. As a special case, all-uppercase files
from old FAT filesystems will be converted to all-lowercase. There are
two flags (one for filename and one for extension) indicating that this
should be done. We did not make the distinction between these two flags
when reading a filename.

We still don't set the flags properly when writing files, but we always
provide a long file name (even if the name would fit in the 8.3 pattern
for a short one, so when reading back our own entries, we should always
use the long filename and be safe.
