Space optimizations in the Boot Menu and BootInfo routines, taking advantage of nested %s. Optimization in the init of RamVars to avoid writing the signature twice. Preparing for addition of serial floppy support, starting to break the assumption that our drives are always 80h or higher.

70;--------------------------------------------------------------------
71; Initializes stack for boot menu usage.
72; POST stack is not large enough when DPTs are stored to 30:0h.
73;
74; Note regarding LOAD_BDA_SEGMENT_TO: If you force the use of SP
75; then you also have to unconditionally enable the CLI/STI pair.
76; The reason for this is that only some buggy 808x CPU:s need the
77; CLI/STI instruction pair when changing stacks. Other CPU:s disable
78; interrupts automatically when SS is modified for the duration of
79; the immediately following instruction to give time to change SP.

82; Parameters:
