BIOS: Added INT13X support for El Torito emulated hard disks, merged resulting three instances of EDD table code.

-              r69703
+              r70333
   appears to be valid despite the oddity.
+- Darwin 6.0.2 also uses an El Torito emulated hard disk. In addition, if
+  INT 13h/41h succeeds, Darwin uses INT13X to read from the emulated drive.
+- Symantec Ghost 11.5 bootable CD also uses El Torito hard disk emulation,
+  uses INT13X without checking for support, and crashes if INT13X is not
+  supported on the emulated drive.
