add xprintf()

this introduces a "commit" callback to the xprintf kernel, to avoid
pointlessly assembling a temporary output string prior to printing it.

one could lift the buffer limitations by introducing a "segment"
callback instead, but that would slow down xvasprintf() due to the
higher callback rate, for no good reason.
