In the continuous effort of better handling OOM in the kernel,
we want to move away from all AK::String usage. One of the final
pieces left to accomplish this goal is replacing all of the usages
of `String::formatted` with something that can actually propagate
failure.
The StringBuilder API was enhanced in the recent past to propagate
failure and thus a slightly modified version of what exists in
`AK::format` will work well for implementing failable format with
`KString`.
Previously, Virtio console ports would not show up in `/sys/dev/char/`.
Also adds support to `SystemServer` to create more than one console
port device in `/dev/` in the multiport case.
The fixes are:
1. Don't copy PCI::DeviceIdentifier during construction. This is a heavy
structure to copy so we definitely don't want to do that. Instead, use
a const reference to it like what happens in other parts in the Kernel.
2. Declare the constructor as explicit to avoid construction errors.
Previously we `VERIFY()`ed that the device supports variable-rate audio
(VRA). Now, we query the VRA bit and if VRA is not supported, we do not
enable double-rate audio and disallow setting any sample rate except
the fixed 48kHz rate as defined by the AC'97 specification. This should
allow the driver to function on a wider array of hardware.
Note that in the AC'97 specification, DRA without VRA is allowed when
supported: this effectively doubles the sample rate to 96kHZ. For now,
we ignore that possibility and let it default to 48kHZ.
Before, only KeyEvent::code_point took the user's keyboard layout
into consideration, while KeyEvent::key was hardcoded QWERTY. This
affected, among other things, Vim Emulation.
Now, KeyEvent::key respects the user's keyboard layout, so will be the
same as KeyEvent::code_point for visible (alphanumeric + symbol) keys.

We were returning `int`s from two functions that caused `ErrorOr` to
not recognize the error codes as a special case. For example,
`ETIMEDOUT` was returned as the positive number 66 resulting in all
kinds of defective behavior.
As a result, SDL2's timer subsystem was not working at all, since the
`SDL_MUTEX_TIMEDOUT` value was never returned.
Executing `asctl set r 96000` no longer results in weird sample rates
being set on the audio devices. SB16 checks for a sample rate between 1
and 44100 Hz, while AC97 implements double-rate support which allows
sample rates between 8kHz and 96kHZ.
This factors out some hardcoded PCMOut registers into a new private
class called AC97Channel, which wraps around a channel's registers and
provides some shared functionality.
No functional changes.
