it didn't work in the past, but it does work nowadays;
specifically, it only worked with libgfxinit in the past,
but not on VGA ROMs.
now it does work on VGA ROMs, tested on e6400 and t1650 so
it was enabled there.
in this setup, a special image is provided where SeaBIOS is
the main payload, but it only loads GRUB; nothing else, every.
this is called SeaGRUB. this setup is useful in cases where
the user only has a GPU that lacks libgfxinit support.

when printing the name of the rom being created, it's
done before the check to rename based on vendorfiles
in target.cfg. this patch fixes that bug.

it wasn't being copied right
the roms under elf/ were being copied, but not the ones
under bin/ - i need to audit it further
for now, i run modify_coreboot_roms from build/roms
instead of update/trees
so, the ones under elf/ no longer have bootblocks copied.
it's only done in bin/

when building only for u-boot, the current script
works just fine. however, when building for other
payloads in additional to u-boot, the final u-boot
stage fails because other payloads are already
inserted via cbfs.
when we build u-boot, we do that last because we want
u-boot setups to only be u-boot, nothing else.
this patch enables qemu x86 to build properly with
u-boot.

keymaps weren't being set in keymay.cfg of cbfs, due
to use of x_ in the rom script, and x_ doesn't handle
quotes or spaces in arguments well.
i'm going to remove use of x_ and xx_ (it's in my todo),
for next release.
for now, hot patch the release. i've gone through and
replaced use of x_ with || err, in some places.
not just the keymap.cfg command, but others too. in case
there are more issues we missed.
this commit is being tagged "20231021fix" and i'm using
this tag to re-build the 20231021 release. i'll just
replace the tarballs in rsync and add errata to the news
page announcing the release. all i did was break peoples
umlauts, i didn't brick their machines fortunately!
very minor bug. anyway, x_/xx_ is a great idea, but sh
isn't really designed for that style of programming. i'll
go back to using just || err in the next release.

as opposed to the current 3-level structure.
recent build system simplifications have enabled
this change, thus:
./build fw coreboot -> ./build roms
./build fw grub -> ./build grub
./build fw serprog -> ./build serprog
./update project release -> ./update release
./update project trees -> ./update trees
./update vendor download -> ./vendor download
./update vendor inject -> ./vendor inject
alper criticised that the commands were too long,
so i made them shorter!

also remove a few redundant variables, or variables that
are not meaningfully used.

The "u-boot.bin" file generated by U-Boot builds is a raw binary. When
adding payloads to a CBFS, we need to use ELF files with add-payload
or manually pass the entry point and load address of the payload binary
with add-flat-binary.
We primarily use the "u-boot.elf" which gets build with the REMAKE_ELF
option, as it also has the necessary device-tree binary that U-Boot
usually needs to work. When the option is not set (e.g. for QEMU), we
need to use the "u-boot" file which is an ELF.

some users reported build errors. technically, there's
nothing wrong with lbmk but it relies on hostcc, and
hostcc is hit or miss when it comes to cross compiling
32-bit, depending on the build system of whatever project.
lbmk needs to handle cross compilation. for now, i'm just
disabling memtest86plus on non-64-bit hosts.

the script used to be called once per target, now it
handles every target. the grub background image wasn't
being set, so if it changed at build time, it would
stay changed.
keep the default in place for each run, while still
allowing target.cfg files to change it per target.

Just one script.
Just one!
Well, two, but the 2nd one already existed:
logic in update/project/trees and
update/project/repo was merged into
include/git.sh and update/project/build
was renamed to update/project/trees; an -f
option was added, which calls the functions
under git.sh
so git clones are now handled by the main build
script (for handling makefiles and defconfigs)
but the logic there is a stub, where git.sh
does all the actual heavy lifting
this cuts the file count down by two, and reduces
sloccount a reasonable amount because much of
the logic already exists in the build script, when
it comes to handling targets. git.sh was adjusted
to integrate with this, rather than act standalone

otherwise, if src/grub/ was already compiled, this

The benefit now is that it can be cleaned. E.g.
./update project build -b coreboot utils
./update project build -b coreboot utils default
./update project build -c coreboot utils
./update project build -c coreboot utils default
the update/project/build script checks when arguments
are provided after the project name. if the first one
is "utils", then it acts in the same way as the old
build/coreboot/util script

it's buggy. "./build fw coreboot" was made to work,
but it caused lots of unknown issues when mixing other
args
the old way wasn't broken. now, once again, you must
pass the "all" argument. e.g.:
./build fw coreboot all
Also, the confirmation messages at the end are a bit
clearer, when listing which ROM images were compiled.

in the future, we may start downloading files that aren't

build/release/src was partly re-written to accomodate this

return with error status if no images were compiled
if a rom image fails to compile, then it will also
exit with error status, but sometimes you can pass
argument "cros" or "default", and it would not give
you rom images due to no target.cfg files, but these
are also ignored because of that.
this restores the same behaviour that existed before,
for this final error check.

for the first time ever, this is a single script.
with recent simplifications in how variables are
handled, and techniques i've developed during
auditing, it's now feasible design-wise for this
to be a single script, without a helper script.

At the end of the function, this script will now
run itself again if there are more arguments. This
enables the following:
./handle make file -c project1 project2 project3
Whereas previously, it could only do this:
./handle make file -c project1
Substitude -b and it's the same.

errors are not defined for mktemp, and the /tmp file
system should be assumed reliable.
if /tmp is *unreliable*, then this is not something that
lbmk either can or should fix; the user clearly has
bigger problems.
manpages for mktemp do not define errors. it is assumed
to be completely reliable.

Instead of having detailed error messages, run most
commands through a function that calls err() under
fault conditions.
Where detail is still required, err() is still called
manually. Where it isn't, the error message is simply
whatever command was executed to cause the error.
This results in a massive sloccount reduction for lbmk;
specifically, 178 sloc reduction, or a 8.1% reduction.
The total sloccount is now 2022, for shell scripts.

also: further reduce the number of arguments passed,
to certain functions as and when feasible, in cases
where those are global variables that never change.
the cbfstool argument in mkUbootRom wasn't even used.
that function was only using the global variable, which
again is only set once.
i also shortened a few messages, removed a few errant
line breaks and reduced sloccount by exactly 1 in main()
by re-arranging how the shift command is used.
it's mainly about shortening variable names, to then
reduce the number of line breaks, but it's a surgical
code size reduction in build/boot/roms.

These are only ever initialised globally, and set once.
Other instances where they are set are only in cases
where they are passed as argument, at the start of
a function, so they are being *needlessly* re-set.
Set them only once and use them globally.
