The Space Bank will use the coyotos.range.get*Page() calls (which aren't
currently appearing in the spec), to fabricate keys to known-unused
pages and GPTs, and returns them to the ZSC.  The ZSC will use
coyotos.page.copyFrom() to copy the page content to the new pages, and
coyotos.gpt.guardedInsert() to insert the new pages and GPTs.
