Fix problems in parsing the kernel command line

The kernel command line allows quoted strings with whitespace in them. Until now,
such parameters would crash /init and cause a kernel panic.
Move parsing into a function and use the 'set' builtin to split /proc/cmdline
into arguments.

Fixes FS#13900 and FS#22080.
