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)

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.

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

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.

replace it with logic that simply uses "." to load
files directly. for this, "vcfg" is added as a variable
in coreboot target.cfg files, referring to a directory
in config/vendor/ containing a file named pkg.cfg, and
this file then contains the same variables as the
erstwhile config/vendor/sources
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.

do not use shorthand here. the test was failing to
produce the desired result under some circumstances,
for example when i did "./update release" i got this:
make: Entering directory '/home/lbdev/lbmk/release/20240612-62-ga6b1a6bd/libreboot-20240612-62-ga6b1a6bd_src/src/stm32-vserprog'

in the above circumstance, run_make_command was executed,
which is not the desired behaviour; rather, fetch_project_trees
or fetch_project_repo should be called, and then the script
should immediately exit. it should also exit, without downloading
anything, if a changelog file exists as in release archives.

the background is only a few kb. the whole rationale
before was to limit the space used in memdisk, but this
decision was made when the background was much bigger;
it has since been optimised greatly, and the grub modules
were heavily reduce, so it should be safe.
grub's memdisk breaks when you add too much data to it.
as part of simplifying the rest of lbmk, this change removes
some more bloat from the rest of lbmk. handling this in the
memdisk is much simpler than handling it with cbfstool.

don't do it after, because that means the main project
is saved under src/ before we know whether the subrepo
was downloaded.
the "depend" variable (in config/git/) is no longer used
for projects that go in subdirectories of a parent; now,
we use config/submodules/ for this type of dependency.
download the "depend" projects (as per config/git/) first.
this way, if they fail, the main one will fail, but if
they succeed and main fails, you can just run the main
download again and it won't fail.
this fixes a bug where, depending on how you download a
set of projects and depending on the order which you do so,
a given project can become un-downloadable on current design,
because git will complain that a directory already exists.
this fix is done not only in code (by this commit), but
by prior configuration changes.

Re-add xHCI only on haswell and broadwell machines, where
they are needed. Otherwise, keep the same GRUB code.
The xHCI patches were removed because they caused issues
on Sandybridge-based Dell Latitude laptops. See:
https://codeberg.org/libreboot/lbmk/issues/216
The issue was not reported elsewhere, including on the
Haswell/Broadwell hardware where they are needed, but the
build system could only build one version of GRUB.
The older machines do not need xHCI patches, because they
either do not have xHCI patches, or work (in GRUB) because
they're in EHCI mode when running the payload.
So, the problem is that we need the xHCI patches for GRUB
on Haswell/Broadwell hardware, but the patches break
Sandybridge hardware, and we only had the one build of GRUB.
To mitigate this problem, the build system now supports
building multiple revisions of GRUB, with different patches,
and each given coreboot target can say which GRUB tree to use
by setting this in target.cfg:
grubtree="xhci"
In the above example, the "xhci" tree would be used. Some
generic GRUB config has been moved to config/data/grub/
and config/grub/ now looks like config/coreboot/ - also,
the grub.cfg file (named "payload" in each tree) is copied
to the GRUB source tree as ".config", then added to GRUB's
memdisk in the same way, as grub.cfg.
Several other design changes had to be made because of this:
* grub.cfg in memdisk no longer automatically jumps to one
in CBFS, but now shows a menuentry for it if available
* Certain commands in script/trees are disabled for GRUB,
such as *config make commands.
* gnulib is now defined in config/submodule/grub/, instead
of config/git/grub - and this mitigates an existing bug
where downloading gnulib first would make grub no longer
possible to download in lbmk.
The coreboot option CONFIG_FINALIZE_USB_ROUTE_XHCI has been
re-enabled on: Dell OptiPlex 9020 MT, Dell OptiPlex 9020 SFF,
Lenovo ThinkPad T440p and Lenovo ThinkPad W541 - now USB should
work again in GRUB.
The GRUB payload has been re-enabled on HP EliteBook 820 G2.
This change will enable per-board GRUB optimisation in the
future. For example, we hardcode what partitions and LVMs
GRUB scans because * is slow on ICH7-based machines, due
to GRUB's design. On other machines, * is reasonably fast,
for automatically enumerating the list of devices for boot.
Use of * (and other wildcards) could enable our GRUB payload
to automatically boot more distros, with minimal fuss. This
can be done at a later date, in subsequent revisions.
