bootloader: Factorize write-file-on-device.

* gnu/bootloader/extlinux.scm (install-extlinux): Factorize bootloader
writing in a new procedure write-file-on-device defined in (gnu build
bootloader).
* gnu/build/bootloader.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add new file.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (qemu-img): Adapt to import and use (gnu build bootloader)
module during derivation building.
