/proc/sysrq-trigger: accept multiple keys at once

This way we can do:
`echo _reisub > /proc/sysrq-trigger`
Instead of:
`for i in r e i s u b; do echo "$i" > /proc/sysrq-trigger; done;`

This can be very useful when trying to execute sysrq combo remotely
or from userspace. When sending keys in multiple separate writes,
userspace (eg. bash or ssh) can be killed before whole combo is completed.
Therefore putting all keys in single write is more robust approach.

Write a character to /proc/sysrq-trigger. e.g.::
Write a single character to /proc/sysrq-trigger.
Only the first character is processed, the rest of the string is
ignored. However, it is not recommended to write any extra characters
as the behavior is undefined and might change in the future versions.
E.g.::
echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger
Alternatively, write multiple characters prepended by underscore.
This way, all characters will be processed. E.g.::
echo _reisub > /proc/sysrq-trigger
The :kbd:`<command key>` is case sensitive.
What are the 'command' keys?
