core: use reserved stack space only for replace_bootstrap
When running replace_bootstrap, our regular stack is still live.
Therefore, (a) make sure we have 44 bytes reserved above the normal
stack, and (b) use those, i.e. StackBuf, not StackTop.

Don't run to comboot API with interrupts off
We have historically run the comboot API with interrupts off due to
concerns about stack overflow. However, this is a really bad idea: we
can easily spend a fair bit of time servicing one of these routines,
especially when doing things like waiting for I/O.
In particular, do_idle should *never* be run with interrupts disabled.
Switch to running with interrupts enabled everywhere unless we have
specific reasons not to do so.

core/conio.inc: when reading the serial port, drop read of IIR
Drop the read of the IIR when reading the serial port. First of all,
we weren't protecting AL so we clobbered the actual data; second of
all, this isn't actually necessary as reading RDR will clear the
interrupt condition per the UART spec.
It's worth noting that enabling interrupts here will do bad things if
the interrupts aren't edge-triggered (since we don't actually have an
interrupt routine to clear the interrupt condition); this also means
bad things will happen if the interrupt line is shared.
