deps are from ../obj to . instead of from obj/ to src/

Port NASM as over to GNU as to avoid nasm install requirement.

Ideally obj would go to obj/debug or obj/release depending on build type

root Makefile should include debug and release targets that call through to src/Makefile as appropriate.

macro registration is lame. either template magic (how to expand to asm call with args) or at least some dynamic registration.

Add configuration files to initrd and use them to initialize things like heaps.

src objects built as part of test end up in test/src instead of test/obj

test::user_mode doesn't exit back to kernel mode before trying to shut down. this causes a page fault when trying to screen::puts directly.

Best fit vs first fit - write test case and measure fragmentation, performance, wastage.
Add debug heap stats and report on screen
Add small object allocator
Consider separate page aligned section of heap to avoid fragmentation.
