Based on feedback and experiences from new coreboot users, it isn't
clear that Tutorial 1 is mainly intended to set up the toolchain and
will not produce a bootable ROM for their board. Thus, add a note
explicitly mentioning this with a short explanation.
The process of manually building and adding the payload is also unusual,
since payloads are usually handled automatically by the build system.
This adds a note in the summary to provide an explanation of this.
The savedefconfig output is also outdated, as Kconfig now outputs
additional lines (even though many of those are the same as the
defaults). This has caused confusion, leading users to think that they
may have configured coreboot incorrectly. Update this to the current
defconfig contents and add a note that this may change depending on the
coreboot version.

Some mainboards have a header connected to the SPI bus, which can be
used to connect a second flash chip and override the onboard flash. This
allows one to boot coreboot on the system without ever having to flash
the onboard flash. HP boards with this header all seem to use the same
2x8 or 2x10 header layout, so document the pinout.

When running multiple tests, e.g. by using unit-tests target, it is hard
to differentiate, which output comes from which file and/or
configuration. This patch makes the output easier to analyze and
understand by using new wrapper macro cb_run_group_tests(). This macro
uses __TEST_NAME__ value (containing test path and Makefile test name)
as a group name when calling cmocka group runner.
Example:
Test path: tests/lib/
Makefile test name: cbmem_stage_cache-test
Test group array name: tests
Result: tests/lib/cbmem_stage_cache-test(tests)

Using the linker's --wrap feature has the downside that it only covers
references across object files: If foo.c defines a() and b(), with b
calling a, --wrap=a does nothing to that call.
Instead, use objcopy to mark a weak and global so it can be overridden
by another implementation, but only for files originating in src/.
That way mocks - implemented in tests/ - become the source of truth.
TEST=Had such an issue with get_log_level() in a follow-up commit, and
the mock now takes over. Also, all existing unit tests still pass.

We typically call checkpatch.pl through make lint which properly adds
the option to tell checkpatch that our lines may be 96 columns long.
However there's one mention of calling checkpatch directly and that
confuses people with complaints about overly long lines that exceed
80 columns.
The lint test that runs checkpatch (and with the right options)
can also be used on a per-directory basis, so offer that instead.

It's also not _that_ bad because git's hashing scheme should uncover
most attempts to tamper with code, either when checking signed tags
or when people push (and see lots of modified commits).
