Syslinux - Mar 2011 - [PATCH] Implementation for sl_initramfs_add_file() in lua.c32

This is a possible implementation for syslinux.initramfs_add_file()
for the lua.c32 module, it adds a third parameter not documented, the
dst_filename as it is required for placing the new file in the
initramfs:

Applying this patch the lua code using this function should look like this:
syslinux.initramfs_add_file(initramfs, module, path)
where initramfs was created with syslinux.initramfs_init(), modules
has been loaded with syslinux.loadfile() and path is a string
containing the destintion path for the file.
