f20a27e327 Use compiler driver to link BERI boot loaders
Do not hardcode elf64-tradbigmips as output format in BERI linker scrips.
Unfortunately, in-tree toolchain and external newer versions of binutils
mean two different things under that. When creating elf binaries using
external toolchain, gcc uses elf64-tradbigmips-freebsd and so linker
script file has to match in order for ld to be able to create the final loader
binary.

Rather than trying to guess, remove hardcoded output format directive from
the linker directive files and use CC to invoke the linker instead.

a2cb5fddcd Create a new linker set, Xficl_compile_set which contains a list of
functions to call at the appropriate time to register new forth
words. In the past we've done this with ifdef soup, but now if the
file is included in the build, we'll get the new forth words.

Use this new functionality to move the pci bios stuff out of loader.c
by moving it to biospci.c.

Move the pnp functionality to common/pnp.c.

Move the inb/outb forth words to the i386 sysdep.c file where their
implementation is defined.

Adjust the efi linker scripts and build machinery to cope.

his should be an invisible change to forth scripts and user
experience.

672aa7f472 Increase BERI loader section alignment to 16
The .text, .bss, and .data sections claimed 16-byte alignment, but were
only aligned to 8 by the linker script.

Discovered with strip(1) from elftoolchain, which performs validation
absent from the binutils strip(1).

b589760a6f Add optional support for USB to BERI loader. Fix the linker script so
that the garbage collection feature can be used when linking.

4527ee3e06 Commit a first cut at ports of boot2 and loader to 64-bit MIPS, with a
particular interest in (and support for) SRI International and the
University of Cambridge's BERI FPGA soft-core processor.  This includes
micro device drivers for the Altera JTAG UART console, memory-mapped
flash, and the Altera SD Card IP core in both boot2 and loader.  boot2
can be written to the on-board Intel StrataFlash on the DE4 board, and
loader can be placed in StrataFlash or the SD Card.

Plenty of XXX comments, but works quite well locally in practice and I
am using it daily.  Although I had originally ported the ARM version
of boot2, the current version is x86-derived as that proved more
feature-complete.  As we don't currently use partitions on our flash
disks, support for that has been commented out relative to x86, but
would be easy to add back.  FDT support has not yet been hooked up,
although some skeleton parts have been put in place for that.

This may well be a useful starting point for ports to other 32-bit and
64-bit MIPS-ISA systems.

This merge is synchronised to CheriBSD github commit
e41d74fd719525d4dd7a7ee499114679165eeaf6, but with some additions of
$FreeBSD.
