Masami Hiramatsu 85c46b78da bootconfig: Add bootconfig magic word for indicating bootconfig explicitly 
Add bootconfig magic word to the end of bootconfig on initrd
image for indicating explicitly the bootconfig is there.
Also tools/bootconfig treats wrong size or wrong checksum or
parse error as an error, because if there is a bootconfig magic
word, there must be a bootconfig.

The bootconfig magic word is "#BOOTCONFIG\n", 12 bytes word.
Thus the block image of the initrd file with bootconfig is
as follows.

[Initrd][bootconfig][size][csum][#BOOTCONFIG\n]
