x86/boot/e820: Implement a range manipulation operator

Add a more versatile memmap= operator, which -- in addition to all the
things that were possible before -- allows you to:

- redeclare existing ranges -- before, you were limited to adding ranges;
- drop any range -- like a mem= for any location;
- use any e820 memory type -- not just some predefined ones.

The syntax is:

  memmap=<size>%<offset>-<oldtype>+<newtype>

Size and offset work as usual. The "-<oldtype>" and "+<newtype>" are
optional and their existence determine the behavior: The command
works on the specified range of memory limited to type <oldtype>
(if specified). This memory is then configured to show up as <newtype>.
If <newtype> is not specified, the memory is removed from the e820 map.
