The pager causes trouble in some cases, where the user has
to press enter at boot time depending on the configuration.
Interactive use is one thing, but we should leave this
disabled for smoother experience. If the user *wishes* to
use the shell, they can always just enable the pager
themselves by doing:
set pager=1

mrc.bin is now handled by include/mrc.sh, adapted
from now-deleted script/update/blobs/mrc
much of the logic has been re-written or adapted for
inside script/update/blobs/download
mrc links/hashes now defined in config/blobs/sources
the new code is simpler (and smaller). in addition,
lbmk can now easily handle mrc.bin files for other
platforms such as broadwell. watch this space.
the full .zip download is now cached, like with other
vendor downloads. this means it won't be re-downloaded
if it was already downloaded before.

With this change, it's still possible to have a single
file at config/git/revisions, but this has been scrapped.
Instead, multiple files now exist under config/git/ with
the same modules declared, but the files are separated
logically. List of files under config/git:
* bios_extract
* biosutilities
* coreboot
* flashrom
* grub (gnulib also defined here)
* me_cleaner
* memtest86plus
* seabios
* serprog (multiple projects defined)
* u-boot
* uefitool
The rationale behind this change is simple: in the future,
we will stop relying on build systems within imported
projects for the import of git submodules. Instead, we
will handle them directly in lbmk.
Additionally, a Linux payload is planned for Libreboot, made
easier by the recent audit (script handle/make/config makes
it easy to integrate Linux, and handle cross-compilers for
userland utilities); a "linux" file under config/git/ could
also define rules for each project besides linux, such as
musl libc, busybox and other utilities.

It's now 44 revisions above 2.12-rc1, not 17 above.
The additional patches (in GRUB master) contain several
important fixes, including cryptodisk and ZFS fixes plus
a few other interesting changes, namely:
14c95e57fddb6c826bee7755232de62efc8eb45b:
kern/misc: Make grub_vsnprintf() C99/POSIX conformant
296d3ec835ed6e3b90d740e497bb534f14fe4b79:
disk/cryptodisk: Fix missing change when updating to use grub_uuidcasecmp()
42a831d7462ec3a114156d56ef8a03e1d47f19e7:
ZFS: support inode type embed into its ID
96446ce14e2d1fe9f5b36ec4ac45a2efd92a40d1:
ZFS: Fix invalid memcmp
444089eec6042250ce3a7184cb09bd8a2ab16808:
ZFS: Don't iterate over null objsets
7ce5b4911005b2a0bfd716d92466b6711844068c:
ZFS: Check bonustype in addition to dnode type
There are more patches than this, but these are the
ones that strike me as interesting for Libreboot.

sha-1 has known collision issues, which may not be readily
exploitable yet (in our context), but we should ideally use
a more secure method for checking file integrity.
therefore, use sha-2 (sha512sum) for checking files. this is
slower than sha-1, but checksum verification is only a minor
part of what lbmk does, so the overall effect on build times
is quite negligible.

Tested on a Nucleo-F042K6.
That has an onboard stlink:
`st-flash --format ihex write bin/serprog_stm32/serprog_nucleo-f042k6.hex`
The usb port used for flashing is separate, its is exposed on
the pin header instead. Check boards/nucleo-f042k6.h for usb pinout.

target.cfg can now specify e.g.
grub_timeout=20
this would then be inserted as timeout.cfg in cbfs,
containing the instruction:
set timeout=20
HP laptops need a bit of extra time, due to the delay
caused by the EC bug workaround deployed in GRUB
desktops in general need extra time. this too is set to
10s, like the HP laptops.
only insert timeout.cfg if actually needed (declared in
target.cfg), otherwise grub.cfg will default to 5s

now under coreboot mainboards, target.cfg can specify

assumed, and used by default. it can be overridden.

it doesn't really make sense for them to be under
blobs/ - nominally, they are blobs, but they are
well-understood data files containing config data,
that is easily parsed by tools like ich9show or
ifdtool (and tools like bincfg or nvmutil)
blobs/ has been re-purposed: this directory no longer
exists in lbmk, but it is created (and on .gitignore)
when needed, by blobutil
thus, the blobs/ directory shall only contain vendor
files, and only those files that libreboot scrubs from
releases. therefore, build/release/src can (and has
been) simplified; it currently copies just the ifd and
gbe files from blobs/, selectively, and this logic is
quite error prone, requiring maintenance. now, the
build/release/src script simply copies config/ (which
only ever contains distributable files) and entirely
ignores the blobs/ directory
the blob download script already creates the required
directory, except for the sch5545 download; this is
now fixed
lbmk code size is slightly smaller, due to this patch
