Towards making KEEP_IT_REAL work again.
Fix bug that caused over-allocation of .text16 and .data16 memory areas
by a factor of 16.

Documented the fact that the prefix can prot_call(main) without
worrying about its stack being destroyed during the Etherboot run.

init_librm() and prot_call() are now real-mode far calls.
install() now calls relocate(), moves the protected-mode code to the new
location, and calls hide_etherboot().

(Redoing check-in lost by SourceForge's failure.)
Use .text16.data section with "aw" attributes, to avoid section type
conflicts when placing both code and data into .text16.
Add __from_{text16,data16}.

Preserve the whole of %esp across prot_call(). We have to split this
between the low half stored in the static variable rm_sp, and the high
half stored on the prot_call() stack, because:
Just using the stack would screw up when a prot_call()ed routine
executes a real_call(); it would have no way to find the current top of
the RM stack.
Extending rm_sp to rm_esp would not be safe, because the guarantee that
rm_sp must return to the correct value by the time an external
real-mode call returns applies only to %sp, not to %esp.

Add infrastructure to support access to .data16 (and .text16) variables
from protected-mode code.
Set up %ds to point to .data16 in prot_to_real, so that code specified
via REAL_EXEC() and friends can access variables in .data16.
Move most real-mode librm variables from .text16 to .data16.

Create two easy-to-use entry points in libprefix: install and
install_prealloc. I *think* these will suffice for all the 16-bit
prefixes.

Towards a(nother) new real-mode infrastructure, in which we take
advantage of the fact that we have to have a permanently-resident block
in base memory.

(librm_base-1b) is already an offset; no need to apply OFFSET().
Doing so, in fact, seems to expose an assembler bug; (a-b-0) is
apparently not the same as (a-b). Go figure.

arch_initialise() is now sufficiently generic that we may as well just
call it initialise() and place it in main.c. :)
