Some mainboards have really nice capabilities for posting, beyond
simple POST cards. Further, some can not use a POST card. This
change defines a weak symbol (mainboard_post) that can be overridden
by a real mainboard_post function.
If, for example, you'd like to do something fancy before the payload starts,
you can add this to mainboard.c:
void mainboard_post(u8 value)
{
switch(value){
case POST_TIME_TO_PARTY: some_fancy_lights();
break;
}
}
Maybe the post function should be an entry in the device. We're beginning to over-use
weak symbols.
BUG=None
TEST=Build and boot a google chromebook. Observe that it still works. Use it to drive
some pretty lights.

Add a configuration option POST_PORT which defaults to 0x80 and
can be redefined by boards which have integrated POST displays
on another I/O port. Change post.c to output POST codes to this
port instead of 0x80 hardcoded.

initializing VGA happens pretty much as the last thing before starting the
payload. Hence, drop VGA console support, as we did in coreboot v3.
- Drop VGA and BTEXT console support.
Console is meant to be debugging only, and by the time graphics comes up
99% of the risky stuff has already happened. Note: This patch does not remove
hardware init but only the actual output functionality.
The ragexl driver needs some extra love, but that's for another day
- factor out die() and post()
- drop some leftover RAMBASE < 0x100000 checks.
