[Enhancement] Option to preserve current boot entry on HOS reboot

[AuroraWright]

Assuming a user has more than one HOS boot entry (e.g. two emuMMCs, or sysMMC + emuMMC, ...) and hekate is used as the AMS reboot payload, I think it would be useful if a setting was provided to autoboot into the same entry without needing to select it again. As an example, a user might have to reboot only to load/unload a sysmodule.

Dunno if a feature like that has any merit.
Most users don't normally reboot only to reboot.
And many that develop and need to reboot often, they use autoboot to automatically boot into their dev fw (and also disable the bootlogo or use 1s delay).

When I first made Nyx I considered something similar. Remnants of it can be seen here:

hekate/nyx/nyx_gui/frontend/gui.c

Lines 1832 to 1838 in 8058d55

	// Quick Launch button.
	// lv_obj_t *btn_quick_launch = lv_btn_create(parent, NULL);
	// lv_obj_t *label_quick_launch = lv_label_create(btn_quick_launch, NULL);
	// lv_label_set_static_text(label_quick_launch, SYMBOL_EDIT" Quick Launch");
	// lv_obj_set_width(btn_quick_launch, 256);
	// lv_obj_set_pos(btn_quick_launch, 343, 448);
	// lv_btn_set_action(btn_quick_launch, LV_BTN_ACTION_CLICK, NULL);

It was basically a launch last booted entry. Issue is that I never liked writing to sd on every boot to save that. Something that your feature request also needs.

Also, have in mind that hekate supports boot configuration parameters.
One homebrew that uses that is https://github.com/WerWolv/Hekate-Toolbox
It can basically read the inis and reboot immediately to the selected entry.

Anyway, I'll think about it.
