It would be far neater to have the bootstrap code (that
currently gets auto added to any prc created) as a .inc
file, so that OnBC can automatically include it still, but
people using OnBA standalone don't have to. Also so
that people can more easily modify and view this code.

This task is fairly reliant on "#971181: OnBA: Caching
of .inc files"

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?
func=detail&aid=971181&group_id=55794&atid=500573

in order to prevent a speed loss.

It would also be useful for improving multi-seg stuff,
since it will be necessary to have extra bootstrap code
to open and lock all code segments.

    How about a checkbox group with values: No startup code,
    Standard startup code, Custom startup code. The last option
    means OBA will look for a startup.asm and use that as the
    startup code.

    This way the standard code can stay cached (at least until
    task #971181 is done).

    Eventually we would want a field in the project database to
    indicate which of these options to use (again, farther down
    the road) so that Hacks could dump the startup code.
