Moved to grub_millisleep().

Actually now that I check it's only in one file.  But the code is right afaict.

Ok.  I made it a bit better by implementing grub_millisleep_generic in
kern/misc.c and making each port just use that, having the option to do it
their way if preferred.

Mostly.  I've observed that for code that doesn't obviously belong somewhere
else, it tends to be in init.c if it's in C and startup.S if it's in asm (in
i386/pc/startup.S it actually gets to the extreme, since only a small part of
it is used for "startup" as such).

So I think init.c is fine.
