util: Eliminate the sw99param m5 utility command.

This is a small additional layer on top of the initparam command and
just breaks the returned value into 12 bit chunks. It presumes that
there is some particular meaning to the default initparam value which
may or may not be true. It's not entirely clear what the 12 bit chunks
that this command returns are actually good for, and it's been around
long enough that there isn't really any good documentation about what
it's intended purpose was.
