rename it to configure_project, because the function now
also handles building (a little bit), not just mere loading
of configuration files.

We already have this to an extent, e.g. the xtree variable.
The xtree variable could probably be removed, in favour of
this, and used for the same purpose.
It works like this, for example:
build_depend="coreboot/default grub/xhci seabios u-boot/gru_bob flashprog"
the "/" denotes a tree, if it's a multi-tree project. However, specifying
the entire multi-tree project without slash is possible, for example:
build_depend="coreboot"
this would specify that all coreboot trees must be built.
This functionality will be used in follow-up commits, centralising
script/trees into mk on the main directory, repacing "build".

stick the makeargs in mkhelper
i previously did cbmakeargs because the old revisions
had to define makeargs per-target otherwise. mkhelper
was done specifically to solve that problem.

config/data/PROJECT/mkhelper.cfg can be provided, for
configuration, and it is loaded *before* target.cfg
there are certain instances where we repeat a lot of
config per tree, in multi-tree projects.
for example, we have the exact same config per grub
tree, besides tree name and revision number, for things
like autoconf arguments.
this last problem will be addressed, in a follow-up
patch, and then expanded upon for other projects.

e.g. ./update trees -f
if passed, this command would download every tree
similarly, the -c option can be used in this way. this
solves a longstanding issue: on the current, much more
efficient design, it was not possible to systematically
clean every project.

some of the variables only initialised in git.sh are
also used in the trees script, which is technically ok
because git.sh is included from the trees script, but
it makes more sense to declare them in the latter.

the git_prep function already creates the given
directory where source code goes, so we don't
need to do it from the trees script.

when downloading multi-tree projects, the rev can be reset
to HEAD instead of the actual rev for a given target. this
occurs when the bare repo (e.g. src/coreboot/coreboot) does
not exist and has to be downloaded first.
bare repository downloading does not rely on target.cfg, in
this context, only pkg.cfg, but it uses the same variable
names (e.g. "rev").
instead of using a separate variable name, thus increasing
code complexity (which is the exact opposite of what i want
to do), do the bare repository download first.
this means that the git.sh script is much cleaner now, for
multi-tree projects, in that it *only* copies the bare repo
then runs git_prep; in that context, the bare repo is cloned
directly by calling the relevant function from script/trees,
which is the same behaviour as when cloning single-tree
project sources.
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
the same function that loads configurations for single-tree
projects has been merged with the function for multi-tree
configs in git.sh, and that functionality has been removed
from git.sh; now it is all unified in the trees script.
as the saying goes: write one program to do one thing well.
the purpose of git.sh is to download source code, but not
to handle configuration files; the latter is meant to be
handled by the trees script, which then calls into git.sh
before running the build logic for that given project.
additionally: the "seen" files are no longer handled, at all.
the logic there was added ages ago, because at the time, i was
considering whether to separate configuration into a new
repository, so that users could more easily make their own
configuration, so it was a guard against misconfiguration.
however, that decision was canceled and we're always very
careful not to introduce a loop; if a loop does occur, the
worst that can possibly happen is you waste some CPU cycles.
Instead, print (on standard output) what config file is being
used, so the operator can see when an infinite loop occurs.
ALSO:
remove _setcfgarg in load_project_config()
it was used to skip when a target.cfg file didn't exist,
specifically on single-tree projects, but this is now
handled using -f instead, on the while loop inside that
function, so _setcfgarg is now a redundant variable.

these variables are initialised empty, then populated
by reading a configuration file.
it may be that in some cases, we want these variables
to be empty. besides that, the "setcfg" command before
it will throw an error if the module file is missing,
and it is assumed that the variables would be set there.

instead, make it a helper function, defined in target.cfg
this means that we can also do the same with other projects
in the future, and it is expected that we will have to.
these helper functions are used in cases where we want
additional actions to be performed.
actually, the helper could be anything. for example, you
could write:
mkhelper="./build foo bar"
and it would do that (at the point of execution, PWD
is the root directory of the build system)

the script used to support building multiple single-tree

it was always by design that an error should occur, if a
target.cfg file does not exist on multi-tree projects,
but we previously did not support target.cfg files on
single-tree projects.
single-tree target.cfg support was later added, and it was
done by making target.cfg optional there, but i accidentally
made it optional on multi-tree projects.
in practise, all multi-tree projects included target.cfg,
but this was not being enforced in code.
this patch should fix the issue.

set it to "auto", because otherwise it'll be unset,
which means that kconfig type is assumed.
the build system is designed in such a way that multi-tree
is assumed, if the target build system uses kconfig files.
target.cfg is optional on single-tree but not multi-tree,
so it's ok to set something here.
basically, kconfig-type projects will never be single-tree.
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
don't hardcode the check based on whether the current
project is grub. instead, define "btype" in target.cfg
if unset, we assume kconfig and permit kconfig commands
e.g. make menuconfig, make silentoldconfig, etc
this is to avoid the deadliest of sins:
project-specific hacks

the current logic for handling multiple single-tree projects

since we don't actually use it this way, remove that feature.

sometimes buildgcc just fails for like no reason. we had this

just run the make crossgcc command anyway.
coreboot's own build system checks itself, and much
more reliably, but the check is more thorough and a bit
slower.
in rare cases, lbmk may come into build issues with xgcc,
and if you run the build again, it will always fail every
time because the checks is based on whether the xgcc
directory exists, rather than checking each
individual crossgcc binary.
checking every binary is also possible, but as i said,
the coreboot build system already does that, so let's defer
to coreboot's own handling of it.
remove the directory check. this will slow down the build
process a little bit, but should improve reliability under
fault conditions.

it's bloat. telling the user to rtfm is something that
we already do on irc; they will still ask how to do
everything, and ignore the message from badcmd(), or
they will automatically know to rtfm.

part of Libreboot Build System Audit 6.
all bloat must go.

replace it with logic that simply uses "." to load
files directly.
config/git files are now directories, also containing
pkg.cfg files each with the same variables as before,
such as repository link and commit hash
this change results in a noticeable reduction in code
complexity within the build system.
unified reading of config files: new function setcfg()
added to lib.sh
setcfg checks if a config exists. if a 2nd argument is
passed, it is used as a return value for eval, otherwise
a string calling err is passed. setcfg output is passed
through eval, to set strings based on config; eval must
be used, so that the variables are set within the same
scope, otherwise they'd be set within setcfg which could
lead to some whacky results.
there's still a bit more more to do, but this single change
results in a substantial reduction in code complexity.
