[RFC PATCH v2 01/29] ntsync: Introduce the ntsync driver and character device.

[Elizabeth Figura]

ntsync uses a misc device as the simplest and least intrusive uAPI interface.

Each file description on the device represents an isolated NT instance, intended
to correspond to a single NT virtual machine.
