[POWERPC] Clean up zImage handling of the command line
This cleans up how the zImage code manipulates the kernel
command line. Notable improvements from the old handling:
- Command line manipulation is consolidated into a new
prep_cmdline() function, rather than being scattered across start()
and some helper functions
- Less stack space use: we use just a single global command
line buffer, which can be initialized by an external tool as before,
we no longer need another command line sized buffer on the stack.
- Easier to support platforms whose firmware passes a
commandline, but not a device tree. Platform code can now point new
loader_info fields to the firmware's command line, rather than having
to do early manipulation of the /chosen bootargs property which may
then be rewritten again by the core.
