ldlinux: fix stack overflow when running COM32 modules
When a COM32 module exits, the functions never return and a new call to ldlinux_enter_command is made. This could fill the stack and overflow on some data present in memory. This patch use setjmp/longjmp to return to the main function and restart from there when a COM32 module exits. Signed-off-by: Sylvain Gault <sylvain.gault@gmail.com>
