16244c490a Kernel: Allocate all device major numbers within one known header file
We used to allocate major numbers quite randomly, with no common place
to look them up if needed.
This commit is changing that by placing all major number allocations
under a new C++ namespace, in the API/MajorNumberAllocation.h file.

We also add the foundations of what is needed before we can publish this
information (allocated numbers for block and char devices) to userspace.

c216e7439f Kernel: Require StorageDevice reference for StorageDevicePartition
Allowing creation of StorageDevicePartition objects for any arbitrary
BlockDevice objects means that we could technically create a
StorageDevicePartition for another StorageDevicePartition which is
obviously not the intention for this code. Instead, require to pass a
StorageDevice reference to ensure this cannot happen.

f08f339e9a Kernel: Return EIO if attached device is gone in StorageDevicePartition
The previous code will just do a nullptr-dereference if the underlying
device is gone, so instead gracefully return EIO error.

42ed0a6c94 Kernel/Storage: Rename DiskPartition => StorageDevicePartition
We deal with partitions for storage devices, not only for disk devices,
originally harddrives.
