net: SLIP framing over the link port + a host gateway (echo round-trip)
First step of link-port networking. The LCD terminal + OSK freed the serial port from console duty, so it can be the network link. Kernel (src/net.asm): raw link-port serial that bypasses the console/ terminal - sys_ssend (transmit, GB drives the clock) and sys_srecv (receive, GB slave, blocks by yielding). Syscalls 29/30. Userland: libc ssend()/srecv(); c/necho.c does SLIP (RFC 1055) framing over them - send a packet, receive the reply, print it. Host: tools/gateway.py wraps the emulator, owns its link serial, speaks SLIP, and (for now) echoes every frame back - the "link cable adapter". Console (ASCII) bytes on the same channel are printed for visibility. Verified: `necho` sends a SLIP frame, the gateway decodes+echoes it, and gbos prints the reply - a real framed round-trip over the Game Boy link port. Next: swap the echo for actual network ops (DNS/HTTP or IRC/chat).
