This series switches to always using $(PHASE_) in Makefiles when
building rather than $(PHASE_) or $(XPL_). It also starts on documenting
this part of the build, but as a follow-up we need to rename
doc/develop/spl.rst and expand on explaining things a bit.

It is confusing to have both "$(PHASE_)" and "$(XPL_)" be used in our
Makefiles as part of the macros to determine when to do something in our
Makefiles based on what phase of the build we are in. For consistency,
bring this down to a single macro and use "$(PHASE_)" only.

Rather than building a command line for each operation, use the
functions provided by the bootm API.

Make sure that the bootm functions are available if pxe_utils is used.

Since SYS_BOOTM_LEN is not present for the tools-only build, adjust the
code to handle that.

So far only VBE-simple is implemented in U-Boot. This supports a single
image which can be updated in situ.

It is often necessary to support two images (A and B) so that the board
is not bricked if the update is interrupted or is bad.

In some cases, a non-updatable recovery image is desirable, so that the
board can be returned to a known-good state in the event of a serious
failure.

Introduce ABrec which provides these features. It supports three
independent images and the logic to select the desired one on boot.

While we are here, fix a debug message to indicate the function it
called. Provide a maintainers entry for VBE.

Note that fwupdated only supports VBE-simple so far, but supports for
ABrec will appear in time.

Add a vbe_get_blk() function and use it to obtain the block device used
by VBE.

This patch was written before the XPL change-over. Update the Makefile
condition to the new way.

Coreboot provides the CMOS layout in the tables it passes to U-Boot.
Use that to build an editor for the CMOS settings.

The bootflow_menu.c code depends on e.g. scene_txt_set_font(),
which is only built when CONFIG_EXPO is enabled. Introduce new
Kconfig symbol BOOTSTD_MENU which depends on EXPO to prevent
triggering errors like these in case e.g. CONFIG_VIDEO=n :

"
boot/bootflow_menu.c:158:(.text+0x8851): undefined reference to `scene_txt_set_font'
"

Make the symbol depend on BOOTSTD_FULL as well to get rid of
the Makefile dependency workaround. Since BOOTSTD_FULL is not
available in SPL, do not define SPL variant of BOOTSTD_MENU.

Fix up bootflow test accordingly.

Use PHASE_ as the symbol to select a particular XPL build. This means
that SPL_TPL_ is no-longer set.

Update the comment in bootstage to refer to this symbol, instead of
SPL_
