Use lock-free heap allocator

Instead of a lock-free allocator, which is likely impossible, I think a better solution is to use a separate allocator for allocations that occur in interrupt contexts. This is now...

Use dedicated types to statically check for write or exec MappedPages permissions

We can actually take this further: by leveraging const generics, we can create MappedPages* instances parameterized with a specific size (in bytes or pages), which is known at compile time....

Move assembly linking and symbol parsing/serialization into the `nano_core` build script

Run `rustfmt` / `cargo fmt` on source code
