This is a pre-cursor to boot environment support in lualoader. Create a new
menu item type, "carousel_entry", that generally provides a callback to get
the list of items, a carousel_id for storing the current value, and the
standard name/func functions that an entry has.
The difference between this and a normal menu item, functionally, is that
selecting a carousel item will automatically rotate through available items
and wrap back at the beginning when the list is exhausted.
The 'name' function takes the choice index, current choice, and the list of
choices as parameters so that the menu item can decorate the name freely as
desired.
The 'func' function takes the current choice as a parameter, so it can act
accordingly.
The kernel menu item has been rewritten to use the carousel_entry type as
both an example and initial test of its functionality before it is used for
boot environment options.
Noting that we're in lualoader is nice, but it's not a difference we raelly
need to expose to Fred. Re-word it to match the 4th wording and reduce
differences.
This removes a redundant alias that has since been converted into a global
alias. It was converted to a global alias before to ensure that we always
have a way to go up one level in the menu.
Set it based on hint.acpi.0.rsdp. Initially, hint.acpi.0.disabled will be
respected. "Using System Defaults" will override whether it's explicitly
disabled by hint and re-load it based on whether it's present on the system.
Unlike the 4th version, this is not restricted to x86. I have no strong
reasoning for this, so this is definitely open to change.
This submenu is likely going to go away in favor of kernel selection as it
is done in forth at the moment, but for the time being don't descend into it
if we have no kernels available for listing.

Use loader.setenv and loader.unsetenv instead of loader.perform
Convert from include("/boot/foo.lua") to foo = require("foo");
to bring in line with latest lua module conventions.
Enforce a uniform style for the new .lua files:
o hard tab indenation for 8 spaces
o don't have if foo then bar; else bas; end on one line
