Thomas Huth 126e458fdc libbootmsg: Do not use '\b' characters when printing checkpoints
Using backspaces after printing out the checkpoint numbers is fine
when printing to terminals. But if the output of SLOF is placed
into a log file instead, this can confuse certain readers like
Firefox to interpret the log file as a binary file instead of text.
To avoid this problem, we can also use '\r' to move the cursor
back to the beginning - this should be fine since the checkpoints
are always printed at the beginning of a line anyway. And '\r' is
then interpreted as normal text, not as a potential binary file byte.
