this is a logical place to get changes upstream before they grow out of
control. this pr is the first in an effort to deduplicate machine code
and streamline code flow.
a lot of code is simply moved to eliminate circular imports. names and
specific paths can ultimately be changed. i dont like some of the
descriptive interface names, etc. ultimately, i think once we have the
"old" code sanitized, we can re-use some of those.
clearly some of what is in here is temporary and will either be deleted,
changed, or moved again as this effort comes to a close.
right now, the machine code does not use any of the "new" code. you
will see in `init` and `rm` some commented out code that hooks it. i'm
afraid things will get worse before they get better (way worse).

The following PR is the very first step in what will a series of steps
to apply a "common" machine configuration file to all providers.
Function names, method names, struct names, and field names are all up
for debate. The purpose of this PR is to offer a glimpse at the
direction we intend to take.
This PR also contains temporary structs (i.e. aThing) that are not
exported. These are merely placeholders.
The configuration work in this PR is also unused of yet. But the code
is compiled. Once merged, we can begin the next step of development.
