This was a premature optimization from the early days of SerenityOS.
The eternal heap was a simple bump pointer allocator over a static
byte array. My original idea was to avoid heap fragmentation and improve
data locality, but both ideas were rooted in cargo culting, not data.
We would reserve 4 MiB at boot and only ended up using ~256 KiB, wasting
the rest.
This patch replaces all kmalloc_eternal() usage by regular kmalloc().

The Qemu I8042 controller does not send one IRQ per event, it sends
over four since it will not stop trying to emulate the PS/2 mouse.
If the VMWare backdoor is active, a fake I8042 mouse event will be sent
that we can then use to check if there are VMWare mouse events present.
However, we were only processing one mouse event at a time, even though
multiple events could have been queued up. Luckily this does not often
lead to issues, since after the first IRQ we would still get three
additional interrupts that would then empty the queue.
This change makes sure we always empty the event queue immediately,
instead of waiting on the next interrupt to happen. Functionally this
changes nothing - it could merely improve latency by not waiting for
new interrupts to come in.
Coincidently, this brings our implementation closer to how Linux deals
with the VMMouse.

MemoryManager cannot use the Singleton class because
MemoryManager::initialize is called before the global constructors
are run. That caused the Singleton to be re-initialized, causing
it to create another MemoryManager instance.

- If there is no VMWare backdoor, don't allocate memory for it.
- Remove the "unsupported" state, instead just don't instantiate.
- Move the command-line parsing from init to the driver.
- Move mouse packet reception from PS2MouseDevice to VMWareBackdoor.

We add this feature together with the VMWareBackdoor class.
VMWareBackdoor class is responsible for enabling the vmmouse, and then
controlling it from the PS2 mouse IRQ handler.
