Add rootwait to grub command line to fix USB boot failures

Without this, one of my boards fails to reboot from USB drive due to
slow USB enumeration. Rootwait is not needed during the Fiwix -> Linux
jump, because we use an initramfs there, and the init scripts already
wait for USB drives to show up. Linux->Linux kexec, used with a custom
early kernel, might need it, so add it there as well to be safe.
