Define close_file slightly tighter:

       - It is permitted to call close_file with a zero filehandle
       - close_file zeros SI

Fix the handling of the new API in SYSLINUX.  It appears file_left was
never actually initialized; it simply didn't matter since the old code
would either trip on reaching the end of the FAT chain or count the
data it needed.  Now operating according to spec.

Support the new getfssec API which returns number of bytes read in
SYSLINUX and EXTLINUX.  Untested so far, but it's a reasonably easy
change.

The test for oversized COMBOOT files have to be updated to be an a

gcc complains that fclose() is too big to be inlined with -Os, so
humour it and move fclose() out of line.

With loadfile() doing megabyte-sized trial-and-error allocations, we
want to be able to do really set the size on the final allocation;
thus constrain the amount of permitted slack to 4K max.
