boottool: maintain image boot prefix from default
Currently when we add an image, we check if the default image
starts with /boot, and if not we remove /boot from the new kernel
and initrd names. This is designed to cope with the situation where
where /boot is its own partion and image names are /vmlinux.
However, this is falsly triggered where there is any device prefix as
can occur in grub:
image (hd0,0)/boot/vmlinux
This leads us to incorrectly produce entries like:
image /mykernel
rather than:
image (hd0,0)/boot/mykernel
This patch changes the algorithm to remove the "filename" from the end
whatever is left then becomes the prefix if the file is in /boot, if
it is not the caller is expected to know what they are doing. Frankly,
its not clear that we support booting files in any other directory.
