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?).

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.

You might want to use the serial hardware for something other than a console,
or you might want to intercede in the serial stream to wrap it in another
protocol. This is what you'd do to send output to GDB while using it to debug
the payload.

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_.

- usb hub support compiles, and works for some trivial cases (no device
detach, trivial power management)

doesn't work on real hardware yet.
