f9dca3c76b some keyboard bochsrc option changes
- moved 'user_shortcut' option to the keyboard option
- added new bx_param_c option value BOCHSRC_HIDDEN for parameters that should
  only be available in the config interface. The new bochsrc option save and
  parser function skip parameters with this flag set. This is useful for
  parameters that will be set from the parser in a different way.
- save keyboard bochsrc line using the parameter list directly
- parse keyboard bochsrc options (except 'keymap') using the parameter list
- user shortcut: old-style syntax has already been removed
- increased minimum value for the keyboard's 'serial_delay'

db633275b0 - several improvements to the optional plugin control
- SIM->opt_plugin_ctrl() now can be used to verify the optional plugin
    configuration when using the plugin name "*". The 'load' value 1 makes
    sure that all plugins with the value 1 are loaded. The 'load' value 0
    unloads all plugin with the value 0 (marked for removal).
  - add the default set of plugins to the 'plugin_ctrl' list and load all these
    pre-defined optional plugins before parsing the configuration.
  - special wx case: verify plugin configuration before showing the plugin
    control dialog and before initialising hardware.
  - device plugins that have been loaded, but not configured now set their
    plugin control value to 0. Added the plugin unload check before signalling reset.
