optionrom: add a DMA-enabled multiboot ROM
Add a new option rom for the multiboot loader, using DMA transfers to copy
data instead of "rep insb".
This significantly lowers QEMU's startup latency by a factor of about 40,
for example, going from 30sec to 0.8sec when loading modules of 120MB
in size.

[Modified to keep the non-DMA code depending on #ifdef USE_FW_CFG_DMA;
do not write below stack. - Paolo]
