preinit: pause before exiting

as explained in the comment, this is to give us a
chance to see error messages before the kernel panics

preinit: disable nolibc
...
- it stopped working with 22.11->23.05
- linking statically against musl is about 17k, so
this is costing us 11k or so

rewrite preinit as very small C program
...
By using the kernel "nolibc" header to avoid requiring a C library, we
can bring the initramfs size to around 4k
This does involve a tiny bit of inline mips assembly which I'm not
sure about. gcc seems unwilling to generate the code to load $gp at
function entry of main(), so we do it by hand - but I'd rather find
out why gcc doesn't.
