This header has a bunch of data structure definitions and macros useful
for manipulating segment descriptors on X86. The old IDT_ENTRY defintion
is removed in favor of the new 'struct segment_descriptor' which can be
used for all segment descriptor types and not just IRQ gates.
We also add some inline helper functions for examining segment registers,
descriptor tables, and doing far jumps/calls.

We no longer assume pointer sizes are the same between host and
target, and use stdint defintions to size things.

The files idtEnt.h and segselect.h in shared are linked from
the source tree for no good reason adding and extra top level
directory that might be confusing.
The shared/ here means shared between host and target, this is
not longer necessary in our build system.

This commit includes the genIdt tool as part of the kconfig
basic tools. Now the genIdt tool is built automatically as
part of the whole kernel project.
