Programs that own their main loop (the IRC client) need to poll for
typed input without blocking. pollin() only sees the on-screen keyboard;
bytes injected over the link (gbhub 'type', for scripted/hub-driven
sessions) land in the kernel console ring, previously only drained by the
blocking KGetc path. Add SYS_POLLCON: a non-blocking con_pop for
userland.
Also enlarge that console ring 16 -> 64. One net_pump drains an entire
serial burst into the ring at once, so a whole injected command line has
to fit or bytes are dropped and lines merge (a 20-char command came out
truncated and glued to the next). 64 covers a full line; mask stays a
power of two.

The application layer of the link-port demo, and it ties the whole system
together: the LCD terminal displays, the on-screen keyboard types, and the
link port carries a live chat.
Kernel: sys_srecv_nb (non-blocking link receive; A=byte, CF=none) and
sys_pollin (poll the OSK for a typed char without blocking) - syscalls
31/32. Both are what a poll loop needs to receive and type at once.
Userland: c/chat.c runs a poll loop - it feeds non-blocking bytes through a
SLIP receive state machine and prints whole incoming frames as messages,
while pollin() drives the on-screen keyboard; SELECT shows the keys, type a
line, START sends it as a frame. libc srecv_nb()/pollin().
Host: tools/gateway.py --mode chat is a simple bot peer (echoes each GB
message and injects a few async ones); --keys can drive the OSK for tests.
Verified: the gateway pushes 'welcome', '<alice> hey gameboy!', '<bob> nice
link cable' unprompted and the GB displays all three (async receive); typing
'hi' on the OSK echoes it and emits the SLIP frame \xC0hi\xC0 (send). A Game
Boy in the chat, keyboard on screen, over the link cable.

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).
