fs: fix standard zero, full devices
The standard devices are currently broken since they have the size ~0. As now files use loff_t as file size which is a signed type the read implementation gets confused and now returns -1. The current implementation also has the (somewhat theorical) problem that we do not have real streaming devices, so /dev/zero went out of zeroes after reading 4GB (or now LLONG_MAX). This patch introduces a new cdev flag DEVFS_IS_CHARACTER_DEV and a new file size flag FILE_SIZE_STREAM which makes it possible to create real stream devices instead.
