[JOS-Kernel] decaf updates

[Todd L. Miller]

        Implemented synchronized methods; implemented virtual consoles in
a java daemon, `consoled', though I've decided against implementing a
screen-redraw hack, waiting for the VGA driver to mature instead.  Began
to implement throws/exceptions for the native code, within interp.cc.
Tried to do a little housecleaning w.r.t. to the tools/ directory in CVS.

        Hopefully, I didn't break anything.  Added a few builtins for
keyboard emulation (very basic) and to allow the vga driver to 'run.'  (At
least, with 24 MB on the emulation's heap, until the JVM halts, out of
memory.)

        Up next is testing checking if a method is native before trying to
look it up in the builtins hash, which may lead to classpath integration
(and a fully functional class library!).  Or maybe getting GC to work, but
we'll see.
