pcat: use a far jump to boot into the OS
...
Unless I misunderstood, this is supposed to set CS. This would make
all SREG have the same value. This allows us to remove BIN( offset
from os.bin.
I've tried booting to offset 0, but it didn't seem to work. Let's
settle for 0x8000. 512kb of system RAM is way more than we need
anyways.

pcat: separate MBR code and OS code
...
MBR code now strictly loads OS code into memory and jumps into it.
Now, I've got to consolidate my assembler code, modrm logic is
messed up.
