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!

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: the grub-mkstandalone command didn't have
a || at the end, even though it did specify an err
call. This has been corrected, so that the command
now defers to err() under fault conditions.

This results in much cleaner copyright and license declarations.
SPDX headers are legally recognised and make auditing easier.
Also, remove descriptions of each script, from each script.
Libreboot documentation at docs/maintain/ describes them.

this means the unified /tmp handling is now provided for
in both the former "fetch" and "fetch_trees" script, which
are now (respectively):
./update project repo
./update project trees
if the fetch scripts weren't cleaning /tmp before, they
now are, because lbmk handles it

new behaviour:
* grub.cfg and grubtest.cfg no longer inserted to cbfs
* grub.cfg in memdisk instead
* grub.cfg in memdisk defers to cbfs/grub.cfg if added
(not added by default, anymore)
* does not defer to grubtest.cfg even if available
* only shows link to grubtest.cfg if available,
as a menuentry item
keymaps:
if /keymap.gkb exists in cbfs, it uses that by default,
but by default this isn't added. instead, it looks for
a file named keymap.cfg and sources that, which then
sets the keymap to one that is located under memdisk.
this file is inserted for each rom, per layout.
if keymap.gkb and keymap.cfg both absent, grub.cfg in
memdisk shall defer to usqwerty as the default keymap
grub_scan_disk: grub.cfg looks for cbfs file "scan.cfg"
and sources that if found, which will be inserted with
the string: set grub_scandisk=setting_goes_here (based
on target.cfg, generated by build/boot/roms automatically).
If no scan.cfg is found, it defaults to "both"
The "background.png" file remains unchanged, and present in
CBFS, used by grub.cfg if present (and it is, by default)
This change actually *saves* space in CBFS, due to compression,
and means that the grub.cfg is now compressed heavily. This
is also safer, because now the user overrides grub.cfg by
adding it, and they can still add grubtest.cfg for testing
first. If they accidentally delete both configs from cbfs,
Libreboot will fall back to the one in memdisk which would
presumably not be deleted.
This also means that lbmk can now more easily be used by
other build systems, that just want the GRUB part to re-use
in their own project. For example, people who want to build
custom coreboot images without using Libreboot's build system.
This change also *speeds* up the build process considerably,
on the parts where ROM images are copied. It's less than half
a second now, whereas previously it took about 30-45 seconds
for ROM images to copy, because of grub.elf being re-added in
each ROM via cbfstool, where compression is used; I believe
the compression part is what caused slowness.
Much, much faster, more versatile builds.

With this change, about 54KB of compressed space is saved
inside of CBFS, on setups that use the GRUB payload.
The uncompressed saving is about 720KB, but payloads are
compressed inside each coreboot image, so the compressed
saving is much smaller. That 54KB saving means a lot,
especially on small (1MB or smaller) flash sizes.
