hd.c: remove BIOS/CMOS queries

An ST-506 disk these days is pretty much someone trying to pull ancient
data using an auxilliary controller.  Pulling data from the BIOS or CMOS
is just plain wrong, since it's likely to be the primary OS disk... and
would be user-entered data anyway.  Instead, require the user enters it
on the command line.

We query CMOS about hard disks : it could be that
we have a SCSI/ESDI/etc controller that is BIOS
compatible with ST-506, and thus showing up in our
BIOS table, but not register compatible, and therefore
not present in CMOS.
Furthermore, we will assume that our ST-506 drives
<if any> are the primary drives in the system, and
the ones reflected as drive 1 or 2.
The first drive is stored in the high nibble of CMOS
byte 0x12, the second in the low nibble. This will be
either a 4 bit drive type or 0xf indicating use byte 0x19
for an 8 bit type, drive 1, 0x1a for drive 2 in CMOS.
Needless to say, a non-zero value means we have
an AT controller hard disk for that drive.
Currently the rtc_lock is a bit academic since this
driver is non-modular, but someday... ? Paul G.
