there are several files of which identical duplicate copies are held in:
- share/bootloaders/extlinux
- share/bootloaders/pxelinux
- share/bootloaders/isolinux
- share/bootloaders/syslinux
it is a pain to maintain this from a development standpoint, having to
copy modified config files into the other directories each time changes
are made and mistakes have been made before due to this.
this creates a new folder share/bootloaders/syslinux_common and moves them
to this new directory.
it also expands the binary_syslinux stage to use it, with it now
constructing the installed set of bootloader files as follows:
1. copy {LB_DIR}/bootloaders/syslinux_common
2. copy {LB_DIR}/bootloaders/{syslinux|isolinux|extlinux|pxelinux} on top
3. copy config/bootloaders/syslinux_common on top
4. copy config/bootloaders/{syslinux|isolinux|extlinux|pxelinux} on top
note, to explain part of the binary_syslinux change, instead of just
copying the correct bootloader folder full of the files, we now make the
target bootloader specific directory, then copy the contents of source
directories into it.

this reverts commit 0cef87ffca0e9d89ac1f8e0098f890f2eefd3559 though
retaining the 'advanced options' menu entry using a label rather than a
title.
despite having done a lot of testing back in 2015 with my bootloader
improvements, i notice now that in fact the syslinux caret fix has an
undesired side effect of modifying the title displayed above the menus. it
does not help that the text embedded into the splash overlaps with this
menu title; perhaps this explains why i missed this problem back in 2015.
purely reverting the implemented fix solves this title problem, but
restores the caret problem to the advanced options menu (in menu.cfg);
however that menu was using a caret in a title entry, unlike everywhere
else where they are only used with labels, which must have been the
original source of the problem all along. ensuring that this menu uses a
label instead of a title in this reversion leaves everything working
correctly afaict.

also fixes the mistaken assignment of the same shortcut for both
entries in live.cfg.in
