main/syslinux: add reboot entry
We don't install /boot/reboot.c32, but if it's present (it can be copied from /usr/share/syslinux/reboot.c32), we add a menu entry for it---just like with memtest. Add a comment to /etc/update-extlinux.conf stating this. It'd already be possible to get a reboot entry using the /etc/update-extlinux.d/ folder, but this patch provides a more intelligent framework with nicer layout. The syslinux sourceball also provides a shutdown module, but I couldn't get this to work and looking at the sources reveals it to be for machines with APM enabled. Not sure how many machines that applies to anymore.
