[SeaBIOS] [PATCH] boot: add serial-friendly alternatives for invoking the boot menu

[Paolo Bonzini]

F11 and F12 are trapped by some terminal emulators, and sgabios does
not always recognize function keys very well.

Real-world machines often provide replacements for function keys for
use on the serial console: ESC+1...ESC+0 for F1...F10, ESC+SHIFT+1 and
ESC+SHIFT+2 for F11...F12.  Accept all of them, which can be useful in
case the user has set boot-menu-key.
