Delete GDT-related files
This commit deletes the gdt.asm for the i386 architecture as it was
quite buggy in that state. In a short while, the real GDT code which
works is going to be committed.

Save progess, then delete GDT for rewrite
This commit saves the progress made on the GDT; the files are deleted
quickly thereafter as the code was quite buggy.

Try to fix GDT; unsuccessful
This commit just existed because of a misunderstanding leading to the
belief that the GDT was finally working; it wasn't though.

Intermediate commit to add GDT
In this commit, it was tried to set a linear GDT. It didn't work; but
in the future, it will.

Add A20 line check
This commit adds a check for whether the A20 line is usable; checking
whether more than one megabyte of RAM can be used. If it isn't usable,
it currently isn't activated, but rather, the boot process is stopped.
