x86 setup: early cmdline parser handle boolean options 

This patch extends the early commandline parser to support boolean options.
The current version in mainline only supports parsing "option=arg" value pairs.

With this it should be easy making other messages like "Uncompressing kernel"
honour the "quiet" parameter, too.
