Make shell script magic less prone to breakage (#643)

The metal boot sector code was wrapped in a single-quoted
string, like so:

    MZqFpD='
    ...MZ HEADER...
    ...E_LFANEW...
    ...BIOS BOOT SECTOR...'

This might break the shell code loader if the boot sector code
contains a 0x27 (single quote) byte.  This patch wraps the
boot sector code in a here-document instead:

    MZqFpD='
    ...MZ HEADER...' <<'@'
    ...E_LFANEW...
    ...BIOS BOOT SECTOR...
    @

This is harder to break — when interpreted as a shell script,
the code can only accidentally terminate the here-document
if there is a "\n@\n" sequence inside the BIOS boot portion.
