I'm not adding options, but organizing them differently, because it is
needed to be able to do the GENTARGETS conversion.

Before, we add:

 * an option to enable isolinux
 * an option to enable pxelinux

But this isn't compatible with GENTARGETS because with GENTARGETS, we
need a single option that enables/disables the package, and other
options should be suboptions. Which is why we now have :

 * an option to enable syslinux
   * a suboption to enable isolinux
   * a suboption to enable pxelinux

I could have done this option change *before* doing the GENTARGETS
conversion, but honestly, I didn't want to mess up with the existing
makefile code before converting it to GENTARGETS.

I also don't think it's a very major issue of having those two things
squashed together into a single patch, so I'd like to keep it as it is
if possible.

Regards,

Thomas
