Some bootflows (such as EFI and ChromiumOS) delay reading the kernel until
it is needed to boot. This saves time when scanning and avoids needing to
allocate memory for something that may never be used.
To permit reading of these files, add a new 'bootflow read' command.

Some bootmeths need to store their own information related to the
bootflow, in addition to the generic information in struct bootflow.
Add a pointer for this.

Some Linux parameters can be set automatically by U-Boot, if it knows the
device being used. For example, since U-Boot knows the serial console
being used, it can add parameters for earlycon and console.
Add support for this.
Note that this is an experimental feature and we will see how useful it
turns out to be. It is very handy for ChromeOS, since otherwise it is very
difficult to manually determine the UART address or port number,
particularly in a script.
Provide an example of how this is used with ChromeOS.

Add a bootflow command to update the command line more easily. This allows
changing a particular parameter rather than editing a very long strings.
It is also easier to handle with scripting.
The new 'bootflow cmdline' command allows getting and setting single
parameters.
Fix up the example output while we are here, since there are a few new
items.

The Linux command line consists of a number of words with optional values.
At present U-Boot allows this to be changed using the bootargs environment
variable.
But this is quite painful, since the command line can be very long.
Add a function which can adjust a single field in the command line, so
that it is easier to make changes before booting.

The "bootargs" environment variable is used to set the command-line
arguments to pass to the OS. Use this same mechanism with bootstd as well.
When the variable is updated, it is written to the current bootflow. When
the current bootflow is updated, the environment variable is updated too.

It seems better to call this a 'bootdev' since this is name used in the
documentation. The older 'Bootdevice' name is no-longer used and may cause
confusion with the 'bootdevice' environment variable.
Update throughout to use bootdev.

For EFI, the distro boot scripts search in three different directories
for the .dtb file. The SOC-based filename fallback is supported only for
32-bit ARM.
Adjust the code to mirror this behaviour.
Also some boards can use a prior-stage FDT if one is not found in the
normal way. Support this and show a message in that case.

These flags actually relate to the iterator, not the bootflow struct
itself. Rename them.

This supports reading a kernel and ramdisk from qfw, then loading it with
either the booti or bootz commands.
For now this uses the existing booti and bootz commands, rather than
trying to call that functionality directly (e.g. do_bootm_states()). It
does not require the HUSH parser though, which helps a little with size.

In some cases the block device is obtained but is not probed, since it
is a sibling of the bootdev. Make sure it is probed, so it can be used
without any trouble.
This fixes a bug with virtio, where the device is accessed before it has
been set up by the virtio uclass.

Add a way to record the bootdevs used when scanning for bootflows. This is
useful for testing.
Enable this only with BOOTSTD_FULL and do the same for the progress
reporting.
Re-enable and update the affected tests now that we have this feature.
For bootdev_test_order_default() there is no-longer any support for using
the bootdev aliases to specify an ordering, so drop that part of the test.

This function is not used outside tests. Drop it and rename

We want to support scanning a single label, like 'mmc' or 'usb0'. Add
this feature by plumbing the label through to the iterator, setting a
flag to indicate that only siblings of the initial device should be used.
This means that scanning a bootdev by its name is not supported anymore.
That feature doesn't seem very useful in practice, so it is no great loss.
Add a test for bootdev_find_by_any() while we are here.

At present we set up the bootdev order at the start, then scan the
bootdevs one by one.
However this approach cannot be used with hunters, since the bootdevs may
not exist until the hunter is used. Nor can we just run all the hunters at
the start, since that violate's U-Boot's 'lazy init' requirement. It also
increases boot time.
So we need to adjust the algorithm to scan by labels instead. As a first
step, drop the dev_order[] array in favour of a list of labels. Update the
name of bootdev_setup_iter_order() to better reflect what it does.
Update some related comments and log messages. Also disable a few tests
until a later commit where we can use them.

Add a bootdev for SPI flash so that these devices can be used with
standard boot. It only supports loading a script.
Add a special case for the label, since we want to use "spi", not
"spi_flash".
Enable the new bootdev on sandbox.

Some bootmeths provide a way to load a device tree as well as the base
OS image. Add a way to store this in the bootflow. Update the
'bootflow info' command to show this information.
Note that the device tree is not allocated, but instead is stored at
an address provided by an environment variable. This may need to be
adjusted at some point, but for now it works well and fits in with the
existing distro-boot scripts.

Add the concept of an OS name to the bootflow. This typically includes the
OS name, version and kernel version.
Implement this for the distro and script bootmeths so that it works with
Armbian and older version of Fedora.

Typically we want to find and use global bootmeths first, since they have
the best idea of how the system should boot. We then use normal bootmeths
as a fallback.
Add the logic for this, putting global bootmeths at the end of the
ordering. We can then easily scan the global bootmeths first, then drop
them from the list for subsequent bootdev-centric scans.
This changes the ordering of global bootmeths, so update the
bootflow_system() accordingly.
Drop the comment from bootmeth_setup_iter_order() since this is an
exported function and it should be in the header file.

Add support for handling this concept in bootflows. Update the 'bootflow'
command to allow only the normal bootmeths to be used. This alllows
skipping EFI bootmgr and VBE, for example.
