      Move multiboot helper out of kernel

      * conf/i386-pc.rmk: Add loader/i386/multiboot_helper.S to
      _multiboot.mod
      * conf/i386-coreboot.rmk: Likewise
      * conf/i386-ieee1275.rmk: Likewise
      * kern/i386/loader.S: Move multiboot helpers from here...
      * loader/i386/multiboot_helper.S: ...moved here
      * include/grub/i386/loader.h: Move declarations of multiboot
      helpers from here...
      * include/grub/i386/multiboot.h: ...moved here
      * loader/i386/multiboot.c: Added include of
      grub/cpu/multiboot.h
