cobalt/posix/syscall: provide fastcall handler

This patch introduces the client-side handler for the fast syscall
routing feature available with the upcoming pipelines.

A fastcall handler (i.e. ipipe_fastcall_hook) is immediately called
from the low level trap code, for handling a client syscall issued by
a thread which executes from the primary domain, instead of going
through the slower pipelined path.

- the fastcall handler is invoked for Cobalt syscalls as defined in
  include/cobalt/uapi/syscalls.h only, otherwise the syscall is passed
  to ipipe_syscall_hook.

- the fastcall handler may migrate the caller to the root domain if
  required.

- no propagation is possible from the fastcall handler to the regular
  kernel syscall code, i.e.: ipipe_fastcall_hook shall succeed or fail
  handling the syscall, but may not offload it to the regular kernel
  by returning KEVENT_PROPAGATE.

- if the pipeline does not support fastcall routing,
  ipipe_syscall_hook is invoked for handling all syscalls as
  previously.
