Nigel 5051b8903c Divided the kernel into seperate distinct phases
The first stage after GRUB will be Pre-Kernel. This stage will organize the
information we receive from the bootloader. (in our case that will be grub)

The second stage is for now called early_main. The program will at this
point already be running in virtual higher-half / higher-quarter address space.
The goal of the second stage is to set up the kernel in such a way that we are
ready to jump in to usermode.

The third stage is for now called kernel_main. This stage will jump us into
usermode and load the startup programs.

- Added a GRUB entry for tests
- Started writing the pre-kernel stage
- Removed knowledge of multiboot from early_main
- Edited the linkerscript to link variables in pre-kernel to
	lower address space. ( from 1MB and up)
