This change ports APE Loader to Linux AARCH64, so that Raspberry Pi
users can run programs like redbean, without the executable needing
to modify itself. Progress has also slipped into this change on the
issue of making progress better conforming to user expectations and
industry standards regarding which symbols we're allowed to declare
This change takes an entirely new approach to the incremental linking of
pkzip executables. The assets created by zipobj.com are now treated like
debug data. After a .com.dbg is compiled, fixupobj.com should be run, so
it can apply fixups to the offsets and move the zip directory to the end
of the file. Since debug data doesn't get objcopy'd, a new tool has been
introduced called zipcopy.com which should be run after objcopy whenever
a .com file is created. This is all automated by the `cosmocc` toolchain
which is rapidly becoming the new recommended approach.
This change also introduces the new C23 checked arithmetic macros.

This change makes SSL virtual hosting possible. You can now load
multiple certificates for multiple domains and redbean will just
figure out which one to use, even if you only have 1 ip address.
You can also use a jumbo certificate that lists all your domains
in the the subject alternative names.
This change also makes performance improvements to MbedTLS. Here
are some benchmarks vs. cc1920749e

There aren't any special tricks to the performance imporvements.
It's mostly due to code cleanup, assembly and intel instructions
like mulx, adox, and adcx.
