optromimage. You can load up to 4 arbitrary binary images into RAM.
I didn't do any checking on the addresses, so it's up to you to make
sure they don't collide with anything else. Should only be used for
placing files into standard RAM.

#1079240 by Ben Lunt. There are still some problems:
- PS/2 mouse is always present (some code to emulate a disconnected mouse needed)
- PS/2 wheel mouse doesn't work properly
- serial wheel mouse detected as a standard mouse and doesn't work at all
- vgaromimage option now compatible with the other rom options. Old style syntax
(without 'file=...") is still supported.
- load order for the rom images fixed (system, vga, other)
- rom images sizes not multiple 512 cause a BX_INFO for now. The original check
will be enabled after updating the vgabios files
- optromimage error messages fixed
- some updates of the bochsrc sample
data written to the port and where to get the data read from it. Available
modes are 'null' (no input/output), 'file' (output to a file specified as
the 'dev' parameter), 'term' (serial terminal) and 'raw' (use the real serial
port - under construction for win32).
- descriptions for serial and parallel options in bochsrc sample updated
* up to 5 slots can be specified with the 'i440fxsupport' config option
* the pci slot number are hardwired to pci device numbers
* the 'devfunc' value is returned the calling device (useful for multi-function
devices)
* the core of the i440FX chipset is hardwired to pci device 1 + 2; usb is still
optional and appears at device 1, function 2
- ne2k: enable pci features if connected to a pci slot
