Hjalfi ports Fuzix to the ESP8266: #5: loading binaries

In whch yr hmbl svt continues to work on the Fuzix port to the ESP8266.

We now have a filesystem, a userland, and enough of a kernel that it's actually trying to load binaries --- so let's write a binary loader. This is using the Fuzix small file format, which is limited to 64kB of code and 64kB of data, but luckily we have less RAM than that so it's fine. Let's also try and fix some of the more egregious userland bugs.
