lib: Add a generic cmdline parse function parse_option_str
There should be a generic function to parse params like a=b,c Adding parse_option_str in lib/cmdline.c which will return true if there's specified option set in the params. Also updated efi=old_map parsing code to use the new function Signed-off-by: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>
