This new architecture decomposes the project into several distict static
libraries: common, host, kvm, and frontend.
By using static libraries, changes within one module will only require
that library to be re-linked, rather than recompiling and re-linking the
entire executable.
The third party library ImGui is now built as a static library target.

The core of the machine-type support is the new operations table,
kvm_ops_t. This acts as a standard C-style virtual table decoupling the
generic KVM core logic from target specific hardware emualtion. The
kvm_t VM instance now points to an ops table, which defines the
"personality" of the guest. A kvm_probe() factory function has been
added to initialize a kvm_t instance with the correct ops table for a
given machine type (eg, Switch 1).
The ops table's .mmio_read and .mmio_write function pointers are the
link between the armv8 CPU core and this new MMIO dispatcher. When a
physical memory access is determined to be MMIO, the VM will call the
appropriate function pointer, which in turn will use the MMIO dispatcher
to find and execute the correct device handler.
The initial implementation for the Switch 1 target
(targets/switch1/hardware/probe.cpp) is a stub. The bootstrapping
logic will be added in subsequent patches.
