This allows a microkit image to be loaded anywhere in memory at which point it will relocate itself to the LOADER_LINK_ADDRESS. These changes are based on the elfloader from seL4/seL4_tools. Changes include: * crt0.s was changed to crt0.S and compiled with gcc to pass in LINK_ADDRESS * memmove and memcpy implementations were added * loader_data was changed to include a size field. This is the size of loader_data, the list of regions, and the regions themselves. These also need to be relocated to ensure that everything works correctly Signed-off-by: Alwin Joshy <joshyalwin@gmail.com>
