this is a file containing one byte, of value zero

i meant to add it in previous commits, for the resizing
and shrinking of tarballs when inserting or deleting
vendor files

used by include/vendor.sh

have bugs, so it is superior by definition.

in this setup, seabios is never the default payload, grub is,
but only if grub is enabled.

set this in target.cfg:

payload_grubsea="y"

if payload_grub isn't enabled, this is auto-set to n

ditto if initmode=normal

NOTE: if flashing libgfx setups, you should make sure
that you're not booting with a graphics card, only intel
graphics. this setting will intentionally not be documented,
because it's not recommended, but is being implemented for
testing purposes (and i implemented it for some guy who i
think is cool). i'll probably also use this myself, since
i already do grub-only setups on all my own machines.

seagrub is the default on x86 because of past instabilities
with grub. to mitigate in case of future issues, since seabios
is always stable, we reduce the chance of bricks.

On coreboot for example, as Mate has told me, if you're
making Kconfig changes and re-compiling, sometimes the
actual image that you build might still have the old one
in it, due to how coreboot's build system works.

To mitigate this, you can just always run distclean before
doing the build, but lbmk was doing just clean.

In practise, we did not find any issues, but this change should
be harmless, and might prevent such issues in the future. It's
even possible that we might have already encountered this before
and not realised, and we were just lucky that no noticeable issues
were caused.

It's *also* possible that the reverse is true: an issue that
was previously covered up, then that issue will now be exposed.
However, if that turns out to be true, then that is good because
we are exposing said bugs and then we will know to fix them!

Anyway, the variable in target.cfg is:

cleancmd="whatever_you_want"

e.g.

cleancmd="distclean"

You may also specify this in global mkhelper.cfg files, per
project; I've already done this for SeaBIOS, coreboot
and U-Boot, since all of these use Kconfig files.

The previous stability issues were resolved, thanks to
the previous revision which added a fix courtesy Simon Glass.

It's really buggy on hardware. Disable for now.

I've contacted Simon Glass on IRC, asking about hardware.

Currently seems to stall when booted from the GRUB
payload, but works when booted from the SeaBIOS menu.

I also tested it as a standalone payload and it seems
to boot. Will test on hardware next, and start adding
it to more mainboards.
