In general, hosted mode is assumed "by default" if the target
is not Xous. This allows packages to be built cleanly on command
lines that don't know to pass a --feature flag to specify a target.
However, an explicit "hosted" flag is still retained so that we
can confirm the build system intent. This saves us from the failure
mode that we thought we were building for target A, but accidentally
ommitted the flag, and instead we've been silently building for
"hosted" mode without any warning. The main consumer of the "hosted"
flag is now just the build.rs script inside of the utralib.
This will allow for e.g. xous on riscv32-imac but not a precursor
target, for example: by using feature selectors we get to have
a bigger range of targets that we support, such as for implementations
that haven't been upstreamed or have official target-triples.
The downsides are:
- patch override libraries don't absorb feature flags. so, for
example, the AES crate that is used to patch other crates won't
be aware of the target features without modifying the referencing
crates.
- features are normally meant to be additive, but target features
are mutually exclusive. The mutex is enforced by a check in
utralib that throws a panic on build if two targets are accidentally
selected at the same time.
This macro will be removed, since it is no longer necessary. Remove this
macro across the project and replace it with a standard `main()`
function.

Was doing disjoint loads and stores on an Atomic, really, should
be using the fetch_add, fetch_sub variants to be proper.
Didn't seem to impact anything but maybe there's a future version
of me that high fives me for doing this.
the connection number is re-used for all objects created
within a process space, so you can't `Drop` the connection
immediately when an object goes out of scope. You have to
make sure all instance of the object go out of scope. This
patch adds reference counting to all the objects so that
the `Drop` function works as intended.
