feat: implement fork system call with deep address space cloning (AI)
- Added paging_clone_directory_from(): deep-copies user-space pages so parent and child have independent memory. Kernel pages are shared. - Fixed process_fork() to accept registers_t* for accurate child state, and to clone from the parent's page directory (not the kernel's). - Refactored process_exit() to properly context-switch to next process using new process_switch_to_user assembly stub (loads full registers_t and performs iret), instead of halting unconditionally. - Fixed sys_waitpid() to use proper blocking: marks process BLOCKED, invokes scheduler, and resumes with exit code when child dies. - Added SYSCALL_SWITCHED mechanism to prevent syscall_handler from clobbering the next process's EAX after a context switch. - Created fork-test user app that validates fork + waitpid. - Added docs/fork.md with architecture documentation. Tested: fork-test creates child, both print messages, parent waits for child exit (code 7), parent reaps and exits (code 0). hello-world also verified to still work correctly after the process_exit refactor.
