In contrast to Mulitboot, in Mulitboot2, there is currently no way to
control where to load the modules to. This could be a problem, e.g., the
OS loaded by Multiboot2 needs to reserve low address for some particular
purposes and not for loading modules.
This new tag gives it flexibility to control the modules load addresses,
which is independent to whether the kernel relocatable tag is present or
not.
