this prevents less trusted processes from connecting to servers
after the kernel initializations are done.
this works so long as we don't have disconnects from the kernel
servers. In order to support disconnects we will also need a
way to re-enumerate the SID to guarantee that we don't have a re-use
problem. But for now, the kernel is not designed with any practical
disconnect mechanism; there is no code that calls the Quit mechanism
on any server.
This rewrites the entire project so that most runnable projects now use
`xous-ipc` instead of `xous::String` where possible.
This also removes `rkyv` from the list of dependencies in `xous-rs`.

rkyv does some optimization to not send all the data in
a string if you don't use it up.
xous assumes the same "pos" argument on the return type
thus a variable length string doesn't work as a return type
(you can send it, because you can specify a "pos" on the send
side).
fortunately, the application for the variable-length string
was getting predictions out of the predictor, and a short (31 element)
fixed-length array with a side companion of a len variable
should be more than sufficient for completion suggestions.
probably should be the *only* implementation because these are
only concerned with IPC calls that really require changes in
two separate crates, but I feel unconfident enough about the API
that for now I want the flexibility to experiment with non-default
APIs until I'm ready to freeze things.
