This PR adds dedicated FIFO-based communication links for core-to-core communication.

These direct communication links are faster (in terms of latency) compared to a memory-mapped or shared-memory communication. Additionally, communication using these links is guaranteed to be atomic.

Untested but what I see looks good.
I like how everything is setup to eventually accept more than dual core.

I like how everything is setup to eventually accept more than dual core.

The unofficial goal is a quad-core option. 😉
