The console output driver framework in libpayload is currently built on
the putchar primitive, meaning that every driver's function gets called
one character at a time. This becomes an issue when we add drivers that
could output multiple characters at a time, but have a high constant
overhead per invocation (such as the planned GDB stub, which needs to
wrap a special frame around output strings and wait for an
acknowledgement from the server).
This patch adds a new 'write' function pointer to the
console_output_driver structure as an alternative to 'putchar'. Output
drivers need to provide at least one of the two ('write' is preferred if
available). The CBMEM console driver is ported as a proof of concept
(since it's our most performace-critical driver and should in theory
benefit the most from less function pointer invocations, although it's
probably still negligible compared to the big sprawling mess that is
printf()).
Even with this fix, the problem remains that printf() was written with
the putchar primitive in mind. Even though normal text already contains
an optimization to allow multiple characters at a time, almost all
formatting directives cause their output (including things like
padding whitespace) to be putchar()ed one character at a time.
Therefore, this patch reworks parts of the output code (especially
number printing) to all but remove that inefficiency (directives still
invoke an extra write() call, but at least not one per character). Since
I'm touching printf() core code anyway, I also tried to salvage what I
could from that weird, broken "return negative on error" code path (not
that any of our current output drivers can trigger it anyway).
A final consequence of this patch is that the responsibility to prepend
line feeds with carriage returns is moved into the output driver
implementations. Doing this only makes sense for drivers with explicit
cursor position control (i.e. serial or video), and things like the
CBMEM console that appears like a normal file to the system really have
no business containing carriage returns (we don't want people to
accidentally associate us with Windows, now, do we?).
BUG=chrome-os-partner:18390
TEST=Made sure video and CBMEM console still look good, tried printf()
with as many weird edge-case strings as I could find and compared serial
output as well as sprintf() return value.

When libpayload header files are included in the payload itself, it's possible
that the payloads config settings will conflict with the ones in libpayload.
It's also possible for the libpayload config settings to conflict with the
payloads. To avoid that, the libpayload config settings have _LP_ (for
libpayload) added to them. The symbols themselves as defined in the Config.in files
are still the same, but the prefix added to them is now CONFIG_LP_ instead of just
CONFIG_.

We had mixed virtual and physical pointers in struct sysinfo_t. Some
being virtual by accident which led to problems when we tried to
reinitialize lib_sysinfo after relocating FILO (to get intentionally
virtual pointers valid again). I guess this didn't cause much trouble
before, as lib_get_sysinfo() was always called with physical addresses
being equal to their virtual counterparts.
For FILO, two possibilities seem practical: Either, have all pointers in
struct sysinfo_t physical, so relocation doesn't hurt. Or, have all
pointers virtual and call lib_get_sysinfo() again after relocation.
This patch goes the latter way, changing the following pointers for
situations where virtual pointers differ from physical:
.extra_version
.build
.compile_time
.compile_by
.compile_host
.compile_domain
.compiler
.linker
.assembler
.cb_version
.vdat_addr
.tstamp_table
.cbmem_cons
.mrc_cache
We could also just correct the accidentally virtual pointers. But, IMO,
this would lower the risk of future confusion.
Note 1: Looks like .version gets never set.
Note 2: .option_table and .framebuffer were virtual pointers but treated
like physical ones. Even in FILO, this led to no problems as
they were set before relocation.
