don't handle "romtype" at all, in board target.cfg files
add /dev/null as pike2008 rom on amd boards. this serves
the same purpose, adding them as empty vga roms, to add
an empty rom in cbfs. pike2008 cards cause seabios to hang,
when their oproms are executed, so we insert a fake rom
on i945 thinkpads, use the coreboot config option:
CONFIG_INTEL_ADD_TOP_SWAP_BOOTBLOCK
when set, this enables the same bootblock copy, for use
with bucts. these two cases, namely pike2008 roms and
i945 bootblock copies, no longer need to be handled in code

only call crossgcc for coreboot and u-boot, but use
hostcc for everything else. simplify the checking of
which architecture to compile for. "arch" in target.cfg
files has been modified, to allow further simplification.
without this patch, the logic currently only *barely* avoids
using crossgcc on things like utils, and only works in practise
because, in practise, lbmk only works on x86_64 anyway.
the new logic, as per this patch, is simpler and more robust.

the logic for naming coreboot roms is based on whether
cpu_microcode_blob.bin would exist in cbfs, and whether
deletion was therefore successful.
lbmk was naming nomicrocode on fam15h roms on this basis,
but the microcode was being inserted as microcode_amd.bin
and microcode_amd_fam15h.bin
in the recent 20231021 release, the roms were exclusively
labeled _nomicrocode in the rom names, but they do in fact
contain microcode.
i'm fixing it by telling lbmk *not* to delete microcode.
if microcode_required is not set, or it's set to y, then
only roms *with* microcode updates are provided; even if
the rom doesn't actually contain it, lbmk will only label
it _nomicrocode if that setting is set to n.
i'm not bothering to add further complexity to the rom
handling logic, because canoeboot now exists anyway (at
website https://canoeboot.org/) which is my new version
re-implementing the older, inferior version of libreboot
so i'm going to:
1) document this as errata in the release
2) cross reference in the freedom status page
3) if someone still isn't happy, i'll say use canoeboot
job done.

in the future, we may start downloading files that aren't
blobs, such as mxm port configs (on mainboards that use
MXM graphics)
this directory will contain all of those files
generally change the language used, across lbmk, to make
use of "vendorfile" instead of "blob"

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
