Kernel / memory:
- mm/kmalloc.c: fix "Heap: Out of memory" under the GUI. The desktop allocates
three full-screen 32-bit buffers (~11MB) which overflowed the fixed 16MB pool.
The heap now starts at 32MB and grows on demand from the PMM (16MB regions),
with region-safe coalescing (only merges physically adjacent blocks) so growth
never corrupts across separate PMM allocations. Adds heap_get_grow_count().
Build / run:
- Makefile: merge `run-gui` into `run` so `make run` boots into the graphical
desktop; add `run-headless` (serial-only via QEMU_CMD), bump guest RAM to
256M, update .PHONY and help.
Configure:
- scripts/kconfig/menuconfig.py: gate the curses UI behind isatty() on stdin and
stdout so non-interactive `make configure` stops emitting "nocbreak() returned
ERR" and falls cleanly through to the non-interactive writer.
GUI / userland:
- gui/gui_apps.c: rebuild the System Monitor from hardcoded values into live
telemetry -- real heap used/total/free with a colour-shifting bar, a scrolling
heap-utilisation graph, the grow counter, and real PMM RAM figures.
- lazybox `free`: report how many times the heap has grown.
Auth:
- Default login is now SUB / SUB (Kali-style username==password), seeded first
as the primary uid-0 account and set as the logged-in user; root kept for
compatibility. Hardcoded "root" defaults (whoami, su, passwd, ssh, sshd
session) updated to SUB.
Verified: clean build on x86_64/aarch64/armv8i; GUI boots with 0 OOM/0 panic;
auth engine initialises cleanly; `make configure` fallback is clean.

The GUI terminal recognised four hardcoded strings and answered everything else
with "Executed: '<cmd>'". It now dispatches to the same LazyBox applet table and
shell builtins the kernel TTY uses, so ls, free, uname, lspci, ktest, neofetch,
sort, cd and the rest all work, with cwd tracked across commands.
LazyBox reports through printk, so before running a command the terminal
installs a printk sink and streams the output into its own scrollback:
- ANSI SGR codes become per-line colours instead of being stripped.
- CP437 box-drawing and block characters fall back to ASCII, so the colour
swatch in neofetch renders as '#' rather than a row of '?'.
- 256 lines of scrollback, command history on Up/Down, PgUp/PgDn/Home/End.
- Applets that read the keyboard directly (nano, snake, sh, top) are refused
with a pointer to the TTY, since they would block the compositor.
The window's paint and event handlers moved out of gui_apps.c into
gui/gui_terminal.c, and gui_gfx.c now draws from the shared lib/font8x8.c table
rather than its own copy.
