Use shell scripting in the recipe instead of GNU make's
conditional syntax. This allows the Makefile to work with
the default implementations of make on the BSDs.

Add FreeBSD to the README as it is now supported. Make a note about
using gmake instead of make as the makefile currently uses GNU
extensions to determine build flags based on the OS.

In order for the EC to maintain the state of whether or not to set the
flash descriptor override across a power cycle, the AC adapter must be
connected, as the system leaves the voltage rail that the EC uses
powered under this condition. Without this, the utility may fail,
continually asking the user to power off and on.
On Linux, CONFIG_X86_IOPL_IOPERM must be set for the kernel, or else the
iopl call will error with "Function not implemented". Make a note of
this in case a user runs into this issue.

cbmk 9429287 is the present canoeboot revision, on this day,
two commits after canoeboot 20231107
the cbmk revision was based on lbmk c4d90087, but lbmk
has developed a lot since, right up to f5b04fa5. lbmk
c4d90087 was four commits after libreboot 20231106
this patch brings cbmk up to date, versus lbmk f5b04fa5,
which is 135 commits after libreboot 20231106 (not 4)
therefore, the next canoeboot release shall import lbmk
changes made *after* lbmk revision f5b04fa5. good day!
In English (the above is for my reference, next time
I make a new canoeboot release):
This imports all of the numerous improvements from
Libreboot, sans the non-FSDG-compliant changes. You
can find a full list of such changes in the audit4 page:
https://libreboot.org/news/audit4.html
A full canoeboot-ised changelog will be available in
the next canoeboot release, with these and subsequent
changes. Most notable here is the update to the new
GRUB 2.12 release (instead of 2.12-rc1), and the
improvements Riku made to pico-serprog. And the build
system improvements from lbmk, such as improved, more
generic cmake and autoconf handling.
Canoeboot-specific changes: I also tweaked the deblob
logic, to make it less error-prone. The new design
changes imported into cbmk (based on latest lbmk) somewhat
broke the deblob logic; it was constantly reminding the
user that blobs.list was missing for coreboot,
at config/coreboot/blobs.list - coreboot is a multi-tree
project in both cbmk and lbmk, and the deblob logic was
tuned for single/multi, but was treating coreboot as both.
for simplicity, i removed the check for whether blobs.list
is present. this means that the operator must ensure that
these files are present, in any given revision, where they
are required on a given set of projects (and the files are
all present, in this update to cbmk)
Also of note: the grub.cfg improvements are included in this
cbmk update. The improved grub.cfg can find grub/syslinux
configs by default, not just grub anymore, also finds extlinux,
and will also find them on EFI System Partition - in addition,
UEFI-based install media is also more robust; although cbmk
doesn't provide UEFI configurations on x86, our GRUB palyoad
does still need to work with distro install media, and many
of them now use UEFI-based GRUB configurations in their
installation media, which just happen to work with our GRUB
