[PATCH v2] PowerPC: boot: Parse chosen/cmdline-timeout parameter

A 5 second timeout during boot might be too long, so make it
configurable. Run the loop at least once to let the user stop the boot
by holding a key pressed.
The property is added to the chosen node, e.g.,
chosen {
bootargs = "console=ttyUL0 root=/dev/ram0";
linux,stdout-path = "/plb at 0/serial at 46000000";
linux,cmdline-timeout = <100>;
} ;

ChangeLog:
v2:
- Rename the property linux,cmdline-timeout (Grant Likely)
- Run the loop at least once to allow (Grant Likely)
