* VFS:
- Fixed vfs_get_vnode_from_fd() return type.
- Added vfs_open_vnode().
- Added a "bool traverseLeafLink" parameter to vfs_get_fs_node_from_path().
It was always resolving symlinks.
* device manager/devfs:
- devfs: get_node_for_path() no longer resolves leaf symlinks. That still
doesn't help with file disk devices, as creating partition wouldn't work
anyway.
- Pulled the module-related implementation part of BaseDevice into new class
AbstractModuleDevice and made all methods of BaseDevice virtual. Small
adjustments to devfs to be happy with the new BaseDevice interface.
- Added BaseDevice subclass FileDevice, which maps the interface to a file's
file descriptor. Still got a few TODOs, but should basically work.
- Use FileDevice for publishing file disk devices in devfs. Now those do
actually work, though there's some BFS trouble with one of the images I
tested.

* Instead of deleting the device directly, we now only remove it from its
parent.
* Additionally, when a vnode is deleted, the new BaseDevice::Removed() method is
called that will remove the device from its parent if needed, and delete it
then.
* This should fix #3856.

* BaseDevice didn't initialize the fInitialized member, and thus causing bug
#2265.
* Device::InitDevice()/UninitDevice() are called from outside of the device
manager, so they better lock it.
* Turned off debug output in devfs and the device manager.
* Fixed debug output in devfs to print the actual vnode/cookie values, instead
of the structures the VFS passes in now.

* Integration of the new driver architecture.
* Moved devfs from fs/ to device_manager/, and separated the legacy driver
support from it.
* Removed fast_log module.
* There are a couple of (temporary) regressions, though:
- legacy SATA and ISA IDE support is disabled, the drivers haven't been
ported yet.
- The not yet used ATA bus manager hasn't been ported yet, either.
- AHCI changes have not been tested.
- the listdev command has been removed from the build (as it currently
doesn't work anymore).
- device manager generated IDs currently are not freed anymore when a device
node is removed.
- generic drivers can't yet use the new driver architecture.
- simple busses that do not support device types won't work yet.
- legacy driver publishing/unpublishing (ie. what USB needs) has not been
tested, and may be broken.
