VFS: merge scratchpad into fproc
There is no reason to keep these tightly coupled data structures separate. Moreover, there is no reason to have a union of file descriptor and file pointer, since the second can be derived from the first. The result are somewhat cleaner VFS internals.

VFS: during initial mount, receive but block work
For VFS, initialization is a special case for processing work: PFS and the ramdisk MFS must be fully mounted before VFS can process any other requests, in particular from init(8). This case was handled by receiving reply messages only from the FS service being mounted, but this effectively disallowed PFS from calling setuid(2) at startup.
This patch lets VFS receive all messages during the mounting process, but defer processing any new requests. As a result, the FS services have a bit more freedom in what they can do during startup.
