Instead of just putting in members directly, wrap them up in structs
which represent what a URL blob entry is meant to hold per the spec.
This makes more obvious what this is meant to represent, such as the
ByteBuffer being used to represent the bytes behind a Blob.
This also allows us to use a stronger type for a function that needs
to return a Blob URL entry's object.
This lets us move a few Host-related functions (like serialization and
checks for what the Host is) into Host instead of having them dotted
around the codebase.
For now, the interface is still very Variant-like, to avoid having to
change quite so much in one go.
Problem:
- `(void)` simply casts the expression to void. This is understood to
indicate that it is ignored, but this is really a compiler trick to
get the compiler to not generate a warning.
Solution:
- Use the `[[maybe_unused]]` attribute to indicate the value is unused.
Note:
- Functions taking a `(void)` argument list have also been changed to
`()` because this is not needed and shows up in the same grep
command.
It is now possible to use the special IPC::File type in message arguments. In
C++, the type is nothing more than a wrapper over a file descriptor. But when
serializing/deserializing IPC::File arguments, LibIPC will use the sendfd/recvfd
kernel APIs instead of sending the integer inline.
This makes it quite convenient to pass files over IPC, and will allow us to
significantly tighten sandboxes in the future :^)

Now most classes dictate how they are serialized and deserialized when
transmitted across LibIPC sockets. This also makes the IPC compiler
a bit simpler. :^)
This shaves ~5 seconds off of a full build, not too bad. Also it just
seems nicer to push this logic out to classes. It could be better but
it's a start. :^)
