Extboot submits requests with whatever buffer alignment the guest gave
to the BIOS. This breaks with O_DIRECT disks, as they require 512 byte
alignment.
Most guest bootloaders sector align their requests out of paranoia, but
the OpenBSD bootloader does not.
This patch always copies. Since extboot is only used at boot time to
load limited amounts of data, the overhead is not problematic. I also
switched to using cpu_physical_memory_* instead of groveling around with
phys_ram_base directly.

Don't check for allocation failures. qemu_malloc() terminates
gracefully on failure, qemu_memalign() does not, but should.

cpu_physical_memory_rw() will check these for you.
All in all, a nice improvement in addition to the bug fix.
