init is now a real scheduled ring-3 process: it prints a heartbeat and
sleeps, forever. The kernel spawns it at boot via spawnProcess (its own
address space, preemption on) and the boot context drops to idle — the
system's steady state is "kernel idle, init alive in ring 3", beating
~1 Hz. Adds the sleep(ms) syscall. The init/process tests are reshaped
around the heartbeat (repeated syscalls, still-alive, two concurrent
processes on distinct address spaces). Pins init to LLD and folds the
.large code model's .ltext/.lrodata/.ldata into the linker script so its
code segment is R+X. Removes the now-dead borrowed-thread ELF loader
(runInitElf); spawnProcess is the one path. Docs updated. Suite 28/28.

Ring 3 works: user GDT descriptors (sysret-ready layout), TSS.rsp0,
U/S-bit user mappings (W^X preserved), an int 0x80 syscall gate with a
mutable trap frame, and a setjmp-style enter/exit path. /sbin/init is a
real freestanding Zig binary built from sbin/, shipped on the ESP,
loaded by the bootloader (BootInfo.init_base/len), validated and mapped
by an in-kernel user-ELF loader, and run at CPL 3 — syscalls: exit,
ping, write. Tests: user, user-pf (U/S isolation proof, error code
0x5), init. Suite 27/27.
