[ros-kernel] Debugging

Hi,

I wrote too little tools to help makeing debugging using VMWare easier:

- "piperead.exe" connects to a VMWare named pipe ("com_1") and dumps the received text stream to stdout. This can be used to display the debug messages in the console window.

- "pipetunnel.exe" connects another VMWare named pipe to a TCP connection. This way we can translate the serial connection ("com_2") of ReactOS' debugger stub into a TCP connection for GDB. This has the advantage you don't have to use two VMWare sessions or use a nullmodem cable. The one session for ROS is now enough.

If there is any interest, I could post the tools here.
