…rganization notable changes ### TTY New /lib/tty library that provides the core readKeyboard and drawText functionality. /lib/term should still be used by user code and the tty api should be considered alpha. The intent in this separation of the code is to allow term api to remain unchanged and allow tty to adapt as improvements are made. ### delayloaded and now splitting The delayloaded packaging system has been removed. The delayload system allowed for library object to appear loaded when in fact they were not. But this significantly increased boot time. The code now imploys "library splitting", saves tremendous memory, shortens boot time, and all libraries are fully usable even when partially loaded. In other words, it is all transparent to the user. ### boot memory cost Numerous micro optimizations have been made. "boot to shell prompt" now idles at 156k allocated, or 40k free, up from ~26k free before this change. Yes, that's 14k less in this update.
