This patchset improves the context handling in 2 ways: firstly it unifies the context structures between switch_to() and CIF entry, and secondly fixes up the context switch code enough so that we can switch and return from an arbitrary PC address in testing.
This is a precursor to fixing up the load/init-program logic so that clients are able access and alter their own context from Forth.

Building upon this work with the load/init-program fixups I found a few bugs, so v2 coming up shortly.
ATB,
