This patch adds a section to the coding style that explicitly clarifies
the use of GCC extensions in coreboot (which has been long-standing
practice anyway), and expressly allows their use.

This change mostly changes links that were identified as broken by
the 'website_scans' jenkins job.
There were some links that seem to be up at times, but that are
identified by link-checker as broken because of SSL issues.
At least one other link was changed to point to archive.org so
that it doesn't break at some point in the future. We should
probably try to make sure that everything is archived there and
point to those versions when possible.
There are still lots more links to do.

This patch is trying to address some of the concerns raised in CB:50247
after the patch had landed. The preference for alphabetized headers was
just supposed to discourage leaving headers completely unordered, and
wasn't intended to disallow other intentional include orderings such as
grouping local includes after system ones or specific ordering
constraints that exist for technical reasons. This patch adds a few more
sentences to try to clarify that.

The MIPS architecture port has been added 5+ years ago in order to
support a Chrome OS project that ended up going nowhere. No other board
has used it since and nobody is still willing or has the expertise and
hardware to maintain it. We have decided that it has become too much of
a mainenance burden and the chance of anyone ever reviving it seems too
slim at this point. This patch eliminates all MIPS code and
MIPS-specific hacks.
