Fix A20 by copying others' implementation
The implementation of the A20 wraparound check was off in some way,
which is why the new implementation was copied from osdev.org, just
using minor modifications to the label naming.

Fix GDT length being insufficient
The value of the GDTR register was set to be 8 bytes too small, with
the effect that an accurate emulation software would error out because
of trying to read over the buffer size, as was noticed when using KVM.

This was due to the perception that the 0th index wouldn't be taken
into account; for that reason, the length of the GDTR was one index
short of what it should've been.

Eric-Paul Ickhorn fd8b5bd57e Fix bug in GDT when using KVM acceleration
The bug was due to the DS segment being set to the 0th segment entry,
causing a general protection fault.
