Adopt the moniker "The Syslinux Project", ordinary proper noun
capitalization, to refer to the project as a whole.  This leaves the
all-caps SYSLINUX to refer to the FAT loader only.

There is enough evidence that "safeint" is a decent compromise between
The Right Thing[TM] and dealing with the reality of ultra-broken
DOSen.  Make it the default.

Clean up some of the command-line parsing code and status printing.
