i386: paravirt boot sequence

This patch uses the updated boot protocol to do paravirtualized boot.
If the boot version is >= 2.07, then it will do two things:

 1. Check the bootparams loadflags to see if we should reload the
    segment registers and clear interrupts.  This is appropriate
    for normal native boot and some paravirtualized environments, but
    inapproprate for others.

 2. Check the hardware architecture, and dispatch to the appropriate
    kernel entrypoint.  If the bootloader doesn't set this, then we
    simply do the normal boot sequence.
