mb/supermicro/x11-lga1151-series: rework documentation

This splits the x11-lga1151-series' documentation into a generic and a
board specific section as a preparation for CB:35427.

Additionally this adds some more information on the x11ssh board.

# X11 LGA1151 series
The supermicros X11 series with socket LGA1151 are mostly the same boards with some minor
differences in internal and external interfaces like available PCIe slots, 1 GbE, 10 GbE,
IPMI etc. This is why those boards are grouped as "X11 LGA1151 series".

# X11 LGA1151 series
The [Supermicro X11 LGA1151 series] are mostly the same boards with some minor differences in
internal and external interfaces like available PCIe slots, NICs (1 GbE, 10 GbE), IPMI, RAID
Controller etc.
## Supported boards
- [X11SSH-TF](x11ssh-tf/x11ssh-tf.md)
## Required proprietary blobs
- [Intel FSP2.0]
- Intel ME
## De-blobbing
- [Intel FSP2.0] can not be removed as long as there is no free replacement
- Intel ME can be cleaned using me_cleaner (~4.5 MB more free space)
- Intel Ethernet Controller Firmware can be removed when it's extended functionality is not
needed. For more details refer to the respective datasheet (e.g 333016-008 for I210).
- Boards with [AST2400] BMC/IPMI: Firmware can be replaced by [OpenBMC]
## Flashing coreboot
Look at the [flashing tutorial] and the board-specific section.
## Known issues
These issues apply to all boards. Have a look at the board-specific issues, too.
- Intel SGX causes secondary APs to crash (disabled for now) when HT is enabled (Fix is WIP CB:35312)
- TianoCore doesn't work with Aspeed NGI, as it's text mode only (Fix is WIP CB:35726)
## ToDo
- Fix issues above
- Fix issues in board specific sections
- Fix TODOs mentioned in code
- Add more boards! :-)
