Bill XIE 3dda4dad1d payloads/external: Add more option related to SeaBIOS and GRUB2
Also known as "SeaGRUB", running GRUB2 atop SeaBIOS proves to be a
useful configuration, since SeaBIOS has improved its hardware
compatibility. For example, some USB drive can work under SeaBIOS but
do not work under native GRUB2, and GRUB2 can use BIOS call (provided
by SeaBIOS) as a fallback method to access hardware if it is present.

But more option is added addition to "SeaGRUB": now GRUB2 and SeaBIOS
can be built as secondary payloads, and "SeaGRUB" is now implemented
as "Primary SeaBIOS + Secondary GRUB2 (selected) + config files".

Matt DeVillier d3b49b4cda payloads/Tianocore: Update default build target, simplify build options
Drop the deprecated COREBOOTPAYLOAD option, and replace it with MrChromebox's
updated UefiPayloadPkg option. Simplify the Kconfig options to make it easier
to build from upstream edk2 master. Drop the TIANOCORE_USE_8254_TIMER Kconfig
option since it applied only to CorebootPayloadPkg. Clean up the Makefile now
that we're only building from a single Tianocore package/target.

Test: build/boot qemu Q35 target with both UefiPayload and Upstream options.

Patrick Georgi 7bb9a4f98b Documentation: Describe our ecosystem
Neither payloads nor distributors are an integral part of the coreboot
source tree, but they're very important parts of the coreboot
ecosystems, so add some descriptions.
