Kernel: Use ksyms in-place instead of duplicating them into eternal heap

We can leave the .ksyms section mapped-but-read-only and then have the
symbols index simply point into it.

Note that we manually insert null-terminators into the symbols section
while parsing it.

This gets rid of ~950 KiB of kmalloc_eternal() at startup. :^)
