Having the signature generation code in /tools prevents self-hosting
on the SMS.

Virgil Dupras b1e162b8a3 grid: change the meaning of CELL!
Replace the "g" arg (glyph) with "c" (character). The reason why "g"
was used was to save a "0x20 -" operation at all CELL! implementations,
but this came with too big a drawback: it made CELL! hardly usable
outside of the Grid subsystem, mostly because the user of CELL! would
often have to do "0x20 -".

For example, I want the SMS's Pad driver to use CELL! directly instead
of having to do EMIT+XYPOS-messing-around. I would have had to do a
"0x20 -" there.

Virgil Dupras 95ab1ad588 Transform "blk/" folders into "blk.fs" text files
Working in "blk/" folder from a modern system is harder than it
should be. Moving blocks around is a bit awkward, grepping is a
bit less convenient than it could be, git blame has troubles
following, etc.

In this commit, we modify blkpack and blkunpack to work with single
text files with blocks being separated by a special markup.

I think this will make the code significantly more convenient to
work into.

Virgil Dupras 7001446212 Complete overhaul of recipes
Recipes contain bits and pieces of hardware-related knowledge, but
these bits feel sparse. I've been wanting to consolidate hardware-
related documentation for a while, but always fell at odds with the
recipes organisation.

We don't have recipes anymore, just a /doc/hw section that contains
hardware-related documentation which often translate to precise
instructions to run Collapse OS on a specific machine.

With this new organisation, I hope to end up with a better, more
solid documentation.
