domain builder: multiboot-like module support

This defines how multiple modules can be passed to a domain by packing
them together into a "multiboot module" in a way very similar to the
multiboot standard.  An SIF_ flag is added to announce such package.
This also adds a packing implementation to PV-GRUB.
