1a608e6066 NFC: Introduce pointer domestication backend support
`capptr_domesticate<Backend>(Backend::LocalState*, CapPtr<T, B>)` is the
intended affordance for conversion to covert from a `CapPtr<T, B>` with
`B::wildness` `Wild` to a `CapPtr<>` with `B::with_wildness<Tame>` and thence
plumbed into the rest of the machinery.

David added the SFINAE wrapper so that `Backend`-s now don't need to implement a
domestication callback; instead, if the `Backend` does not provide a
`capptr_domesticate` function, a default, which just does an explicit type cast,
will be used instead.

This is not yet hooked into the rest of the tree.

3af9d35099 Plumb LocalState ptrs through to Pagemap accessors
David points out that we might not have a static way to get at the pagemap, so
it is potentially useful to pass pointers to state objects down from the
Allocators.

70c3e00df7 AddressSpace: use Backend to access Pagemap
And do so by type, rather than by value.  While here, introduce a C++20 concept
for this Backend-offered proxy and adjust the template parameters appropriately.

This will be useful for the process sandbox code, which needs to mediate stores
to the pagemap, but can provide a read-only view.
