8e38ff969d Implement API for mapping virtual addresses to physical frames
The API provides the Map() and MapTemporary() functions that establish
virtual -> physical address mappings using the currently active page
directory table.

Mapped pages can be unmapped using the Unmap() function. When unmapping
virtual addresses, the page tables leading to them will not be
automatically released even if they are empty. This will be addressed by
a future commit.

319f868a14 Implement page table entry walker
The page table walker provides a mechanism for accessing the individual
page table entries that correspond to a particular virtual memory
address. This implementation will serve as the basis for implementing
page mapping/unmapping and virtual to physical address translation.

b67a2045b9 Define virtual memory page type
This is equivalent to pmm.Frame (also a uintptr) but having different
types for physical and virtual frames serves as an additional layer of
protection for functions/methods that receive physical and/or virtual
page arguments.
