We now use AK::Error and AK::ErrorOr<T> in both kernel and userspace!
This was a slightly tedious refactoring that took a long time, so it's
not unlikely that some bugs crept in.
Nevertheless, it does pass basic functionality testing, and it's just
real nice to finally see the same pattern in all contexts. :^)
There's basically no real difference in software between a SATA harddisk
and IDE harddisk. The difference in the implementation is for the host
bus adapter protocol and registers layout.
Therefore, there's no point in putting a distinction in software to
these devices.
This change also greatly simplifies and removes stale APIs and removes
unnecessary parameters in constructor calls, which tighten things
further everywhere.
This change is another minor step towards removing `AK::String` from
the Kernel. Instead of dynamically allocating the storage_name we can
instead allocate it via a KString in the factory for each device, and
then push the device name down into the StorageDevice base class.
We don't have a way of doing `AK::String::formatted(..)` with a KString
at the moment, so cleaning that up will be left for a later day.
This is really a basic support for AHCI hotplug events, so we know how
to add a node representing the device in /sys/dev/block and removing it
according to the event type (insertion/removal).
This change doesn't take into account what happens if the device was
mounted or a read/write operation is being handled.
For this to work correctly, StorageManagement now uses the Singleton
container, as it might be accessed simultaneously from many CPUs
for hotplug events. DiskPartition holds a WeakPtr instead of a RefPtr,
to allow removal of a StorageDevice object from the heap.
StorageDevices are now stored and being referenced to via an
IntrusiveList to make it easier to remove them on hotplug event.
In future changes, all of the stated above might change, but for now,
this commit represents the least amount of changes to make everything
to work correctly.
These methods are no longer needed because SystemServer is able to
populate the DevFS on its own.
Device absolute_path no longer assume a path to the /dev location,
because it really should not assume any path to a Device node.
Because StorageManagement still needs to know the storage name, we
declare a virtual method only for StorageDevices to override, but this
technique should really be removed later on.

The partitioning code was very outdated, and required a full refactor.
The new subsystem removes duplicated code and uses more AK containers.
The most important change is that all implementations of the
PartitionTable class conform to one interface, which made it possible
to remove unnecessary code in the EBRPartitionTable class.
Finding partitions is now done in the StorageManagement singleton,
instead of doing so in init.cpp.
Also, now we don't try to find partitions on demand - the kernel will
try to detect if a StorageDevice is partitioned, and if so, will check
what is the partition table, which could be MBR, GUID or EBR.
Then, it will create DiskPartitionMetadata object for each partition
that is available in the partition table. This object will be used
by the partition enumeration code to create a DiskPartition with the
correct minor number.
This new subsystem is somewhat replacing the IDE disk code we had with a
new flexible design.
StorageDevice is a generic class that represent a generic storage
device. It is meant that specific storage hardware will override the
interface. StorageController is a generic class that represent
a storage controller that can be found in a machine.
The IDEController class governs two IDEChannels. An IDEChannel is
responsible to manage the master & slave devices of the channel,
therefore an IDEChannel is an IRQHandler.
