built.
Instead of having a bootblock and a lar archive, the bootblock is now
part of the archive:
$ lar -l build/linuxbios.rom
normal/initram (93 bytes @0x24)
normal/payload (32768 bytes @0xb4)
normal/stage2 (32028 bytes @0x80e4)
linuxbios.bootblock (16384 bytes @0x3c000)

is a base change to make the whole linuxbios.rom a lar file.
* fix a whole lot of lar bugs (that never showed up in production yet)
* add proper option parsing to lar
* add verbose option
* add option to automatically pad lar archive to a certain size
* add proper file handling (specifying a directory will now pack all files
in that directory into the lar, instead of a 4k dummy file)
* catch lots of user errors, less implicit assumptions
* merge all header files into lib.h (except lar.h which is needed by other
programs using the lar format). lib.h is still very small.
* print errors to stderr
* (slipped in) copy linuxbios.rom to bios.bin for qemu ;-)
* adapt arch/x86/Makefile to use the new features.
* set version to 0.9
* lots of security bugs fixed (thanks to Uwe!)
* catch low memory conditions in strdup

accordance to the newboot document:
* reset vector (16 bytes)
* vpd (240bytes)
* boot block (8k - 256b)
* lar archive (256-8 k)
The boot block is kind of simple, still. It enables pmode, car, and
starts looking for an initram module in the lar archive.
Note: This doesnt do much at the moment,
as gas seems to produce buggy code in init.S.
Take this as a suggestion of how it might work and please provide
patches fixing it and bringing it into shape.
