Tagging __syslinux_get_serial_info() with __constructor is pretty
useless when the global variables it uses, such as SerialPort, etc,
are assigned *after* the constructor has run. This constructor made
sense when config parsing was done by the core, but parsing is now
performed by ldlinux. We need to explicitly invoke the function to
initialise __syslinux_serial_console_info once we've parsed any config
files.

eprintf.c was introduced in commit 086d698c642f ("ldlinux: Add
eprintf() to print to VGA and serial") because printf() output wasn't
appearing on the serial console. It turns out that the above
__constructor confusion was the real bug.

16-bit COMBOOT files are no longer supported by Syslinux in 5.00 so
delete all references and change any 32-bit COMBOOT image references
to mention ELF instead.

Some of the COMBOOT stuff is still used internally so we can't nuke
core/comboot.inc yet, but that will disappear in a future release.

In preparation for strictly limiting the list of variables that are
exported (global) in the core, delete any unused variables, rewrite
variable declarations in C that are not referenced by asm and delete
files that are no longer included in other asm files.

This involved some other changes, such as passing flags to
unload_pxe() now that we only call it from C code, and hence don't
need to update KeepPXE.

We also needed to move some of the pxe function prototypes to
com32/include/syslinux/pxe_api.h because they are now referenced
outside of the core.

There's no reason to use the COMBOOT API at all now that we can have
any undefined symbols resolved at runtime - we can just access
functions directly.

The reason for this merge is that we need the fix to core/fs/cache.c
without which we can potentially dereference an invalid pointer.

The below conflict is a result of the new setup_data blob code being
merged from the master branch.

Conflicts:
	com32/lib/Makefile
