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

<title>don't support ucode removal on untested targets</title>

i have in fact tested whether many of these targets (ivy,
sandy and haswell on intel) boot without microcode, and many
do, but it's not as well tested

the older targets like i945, x4x, pineview and gm45 are
well-tested without microcode; ditto fam10/15h amd.

lbmk supports providing roms with and/or without microcode.
for the targets touched in this commit, lbmk now only
provides images with microcode included by default.

manual removal (with cbfstool) is still possible, if you want
to do that.

they are fundamentally the same, in an lbmk context.

they are downloaded in the same way, and compiled in
the same way!

(Kconfig infrastructure, board-specific code, the way
submodules are used in git, etc)

~200 sloc reduction in resources/scripts

the audit begins

Intel GPU!

The AMD ones will be tested, but assume Intel-only for now.
