Implements an sclp_read function to capture input from the
console and a wrapper function that handles parsing certain
characters and adding input to a buffer. The input is checked
for any erroneous values and is handled appropriately.
A prompt will persist until input is entered or the timeout
expires (if one was set). Example:
Please choose (default will boot in 10 seconds):
Correct input will boot the respective boot index. If the
user's input is empty, 0, or if the timeout expires, then
the default zipl entry will be chosen. If the input is
within the range of available boot entries, then the
selection will be booted. Any erroneous input will cancel
the timeout and re-prompt the user.
