Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

Current inode allocations in the proc-fs (hex-numbers):
00000000 reserved
00000001-00000fff static entries (goners)
001 root-ino
00001000-00001fff unused
0001xxxx-7fffxxxx pid-dir entries for pid 1-7fff
80000000-efffffff unused
f0000000-ffffffff dynamic entries
Goal:
a) once we'll split the thing into several virtual filesystems we
will get rid of magical ranges (and this file, BTW).
