### Payloads
* SeaBIOS: Update stable release from 1.14.0 to 1.16.0
* iPXE: Update stable release from 2019.3 to 2022.1
* Add new coreDOOM payload, a port of Doom to libpayload
* Add "GRUB2 atop SeaBIOS" aka "SeaGRUB" option, which builds GRUB2 as a
secondary payload for SeaBIOS with the GRUB2 set as the default boot entry.
This allows GRUB2 to use BIOS callbacks provided by SeaBIOS as a fallback
method to access hardware that the native GRUB2 payload cannot access.
* Add option to build SeaBIOS and GRUB2 as secondary payloads
