Support mixing a value and subkeys under a key. Since kernel cmdline
options will support "aaa.bbb=value1 aaa.bbb.ccc=value2", it is
better that the bootconfig supports such configuration too.
Note that this does not change syntax itself but just accepts
mixed value and subkeys e.g.
key = value1
key.subkey = value2
But this is not accepted;
key {
value1
subkey = value2
}
That will make value1 as a subkey.
Also, the order of the value node under a key is fixed. If there
are a value and subkeys, the value is always the first child node
of the key. Thus if user specifies subkeys first, e.g.
key.subkey = value1
key = value2
In the program (and /proc/bootconfig), it will be shown as below
key = value2
key.subkey = value1
