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.

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.

testing +x is all well and good, but the variable string
may be empty, even if set. some of the checks in the build
system are relying on the latter, so handle it.
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
the current check is flawed, because if u-boot doesn't
exist, but a given build would be the file verified by
the first check, the check would still fail even after
then building u-boot.
building it first will make this check pass, under such
a condition.

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
projects, but this behaviour was buggy and unused, so it
was removed.
rename the build_projects variable accordingly.
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
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 trees script itself will check that the directory
exists, and exit with zero status if it does, without
doing anything else other than the return.

we don't want the user to flash coreboot from elf/, because
those images do not contain payloads. the user must flash from
bin/
ample warning is given, at build time, but the warning is written
in english. therefore, some people may not understand it, because
they may not even speak english.
hide the coreboot elf/ directory, to mitigate this possibility.
in most cases, this will probably prevent the average user from
flashing those images, since they likely won't see it.
the "DO NOT FLASH" warning is still included in that directory
name, while creating it.

we override TMPDIR, setting it to /tmp/xbmk*C
if it's just set to tmp, that means we didn't set it properly,
which is a bug.
this patch protects against deletion of /tmp under such a
fault condition, if it were ever to occur in the future.
