Handle multiple rdloaddriver= parameters in the cmdlineDict.  In cases

In the boot loader code, take cmdlineDict values that are sets, convert
them to lists, and join them to a single string separated by commas
before writing them to the argument list.

This set looks fine, except for comments below.

You don't need the trailing commas in your tuples.  The only time you
need to use a trailing comma is if you're creating a singleton tuple
because python syntax is a little weird there.  Makes it a little easier
to read, I think.

Changed.  I won't post a new patch since it's removing two commas.

I don't really like this, but I think it will be okay.  We don't appear
to allow for multiple instances of a command line option anywhere else
in anaconda, so you shouldn't be breaking existing behavior by using a
set when that comes up.

I'll wait to hear from the rest of the team too. I'm not too worried about it, but tend to be thinking about this change the same way you are.
