core: rework reboot parameter logic a bit

Always warn if something fails, and clarify that the involved utility functions
do so in their name.

Drop the REBOOT_PARAM_FILE macro. We don't do this for other flag file paths
like this, so don't do this for this one either. The path isn't configurable
anyway, hence let's make this easier to read by avoiding this one indirection.
