syslinux: add vesamenu ui support

...and switch syslinux.iso over to it: syslinux-3.86-alt4's (actually opensuse's) gfxboot hackery doesn't properly init video mode so memdisk-started freedos has console troubles (and yesterday's hdt.c32 hassles could be avoided as well it seems). And that's being implemented. Mid-term plan: try switching to syslinux4. PS: CLI fallback was actually a bug in hdt from syslinux <= 3.86-alt3

 Фича не только требует фичу syslinux (и соответствующий пакет,
