Split SYSLINUX configuration into per-kernel configuration files
Slightly simplifies adding boot loader configuration for more kernels.
Unfortunately the INCLUDE statement doesn't support wildcards, so each new file must be manually included in the main syslinux configuration file (syslinux.cfg for baseline and archiso_sys.cfg for releng).

Do not rename the initramfs image
This is a breaking change. archweb, archiso-manager and various documentation must be updated.

configs/releng/syslinux/archiso_pxe.cfg: add "checksum" and "verify" boot options
An ISO's checksum and GPG validation primarily matters when PXE booting, so it would be appropriate to enable these options for releng.
They should protect against booting a corrupt image.

Copy files more generically
configs/*:
Copy all files that do not need a rename generically (not specifying a destination file name).
Do not rename vmlinuz-linux to vmlinuz or vmlinuz.efi (as this serves no purpose and makes the scripts more
complicated).
Do not rename microcode (i.e. {amd,intel}-ucode.img) when copying them and change all boot loader configuration files
that assume a renamed microcode image.
Add note and link to Arch Linux wiki to state why memtest.bin is renamed to memtest.
Copy license files for {amd,intel}-ucode and memtest more generically by placing them into subdirectories with the same
name as the package (to circumenvent overwriting one other).

Standardizing boot loader entry format
{configs/releng/efiboot/loader/entries/archiso-x86_64-{cd,usb}.conf,configs/releng/syslinux/archiso_{pxe,sys}.cfg}:
Standardizing the boot loader entry format by switching all entries to the form:
"Arch Linux install medium (<CARCH>[, <PROPERTY>])".
This removes the distinction between "CD" and "USB" when booting in UEFI "el-torito" (as the information is not useful).
Changing some of the syslinux help text as well to reflect this change. This also drops the specific <CARCH> from the
syslinux help text as it is duplicated information.

Closes #24

f166038db8 [configs/releng] Refactor build.sh: build only dual-iso
* This scripts, now runs only in x86_64.
* build.sh does not require arguments to run (no more build, clean, purge).
* /usr/share split is not done anymore: there are some differences between two arches. (ISO size +60MiB)
* /usr/lib/modules split is not done anymore: this was never enabled officially in aitab.

Tested and works fine. Maybe some small cosmetic changes needed.

d7966acd15 [configs/releng] Use whichsys.c32 to determine bootloader type
* In that way we can have two differents syslinux menus depending if booting from
PXE or from non-PXE.
Some file renames are made to keep things ordered:

archiso_pxe* all things related to PXELINUX
archiso_sys* all things related to SYSLINUX
*_inc.cfg only contains INCLUDE directive

* By default NBD PXE option is selected for booting on timeout.
* As (NDB/NFS/HTTP/FTP) server is used the same IP from pxeserver.
