Genode OS Framework release 16.11

The fresh release revisits the most fundamental aspect of the framework - the interplay between parent and child components. We replaced the fully synchronous model of communication by asynchronous communication to vastly improve scalability and reduce the effort of thorough evaluation of crucial system components. Further, we refined the design and configuration interface of our NIC-router component to ease its application in common use cases. Additional highlights are NOVA kernel improvements, VirtualBox version updates, and support for smart cards.
