boot32.asm: fix, reset full ax after int 10h function 0Eh
We discovered [1] that some ROM-BIOS implementations apparently
corrupt the ah register contents upon running int 10h function
0Eh so that writing only al afterwards isn't certain to set up
the registers for another function 0Eh call.
In the talk about this I referenced an earlier problem [2] in
which it was the al register, not ah, which got corrupted. So
all in all the int 10h function 0Eh call should be expected to
clobber the entirety of ax, alongside bp. (The bp corruption is
stated in the Interrupt List [3].)
