Convert linux bootrom to external rom and fw_cfg
We already have a working multiboot implementation that uses fw_cfg to getits kernel module etc. data in int19 runtime now.
So what's missing is a working linux boot option rom. While at it I figured itwould be a good idea to take the opcode generator out of pc.c and instead use...
Convert multiboot to fw_cfg backed data storage
Right now we load the guest kernel to RAM, fire off the BIOS, hope itdoesn't clobber memory and run an option rom that jumps into the kernel.
That breaks with SeaBIOS, as that clears memory. So let's read all...

Revert "Get rid of _t suffix"
In the very least, a change like this requires discussion on the list.
The naming convention is goofy and it causes a massive merge problem. Somethinglike this must be presented on the list first so people can provide input...
Get rid of _t suffix
Some not so obvious bits, slirp and Xen were left alone for the timebeing.

sending NUMA topology to BIOS (Andre Przywara)
uses the QEMU firmware configuration interfacce to send the NUMAtopology to the BIOS, which has to setup the tables. Only one firmwareconfiguration channel is used.
