lguest: documentation I: Preparation

The netfilter code had very good documentation: the Netfilter Hacking HOWTO.
Noone ever read it.

So this time I'm trying something different, using a bit of Knuthiness.

/*P:800 Interrupts (traps) are complicated enough to earn their own file.
* There are three classes of interrupts:
*
* 1) Real hardware interrupts which occur while we're running the Guest,
* 2) Interrupts for virtual devices attached to the Guest, and
* 3) Traps and faults from the Guest.
*
* Real hardware interrupts must be delivered to the Host, not the Guest.
* Virtual interrupts must be delivered to the Guest, but we make them look
* just like real hardware would deliver them. Traps from the Guest can be set
* up to go directly back into the Guest, but sometimes the Host wants to see
* them first, so we also have a way of "reflecting" them into the Guest as if
* they had been delivered to it directly. :*/
