Martin Roth ccfea16cd4 Documentation: Reflow Kconfig.md
The original document was written and committed with no regard to line
lengths.  This makes it easier to write.  Now it needs to be easier to
read, so wrap the lines at 80 characters where possible.

- A couple of headings had to be rewritten to keep them under 80
characters.  This required the addition of a new paragraph that had
the old header.
- Remove URL text that was just duplicating the URL.
- All other text is the same, just wrapped.

The FLASHMAP_OFFSET config variable is used in lib/fmap.c, however
the fmdtool creates a fmap_config.h with a FMAP_OFFSET #define.
Those 2 values are not consistent. Therefore, remove the Kconfig
variable and defer to the #define generated by fmdtool.

Martin Roth 331c722dd7 Documentation: Add information about patches from other git repos
This is more tribal knowledge that I don't think I've seen written down
anywhere else.  It's not a huge issue, but when looking through the git
log, it helps to be able to differentiate the information from the old
gerrit with the information from the new one.

Martin Roth 6f1e074c3d Documentation: coreboot Gerrit Etiquette and Guidelines
As the community has grown, so has the need to formalize some of the
guidelines that the community lives by.  When the community was small,
it was easy to communicate these things just from one person to another.

Now, with more people joining the community every day, it seems that
it's time to write some of these things down, allowing people to
understand our policies immediately instead of making them learn our
practices as they make mistakes.

As it says in the document:
The following rules are the requirements for behavior in the coreboot
codebase in gerrit.  These have mainly been unwritten rules up to this
point, and should be familiar to most users who have been active in
coreboot for a period of time.  Following these rules will help reduce
friction in the community.

Patrick Georgi a73b93157f tree: drop last paragraph of GPL copyright header
It encourages users from writing to the FSF without giving an address.
Linux also prefers to drop that and their checkpatch.pl (that we
imported) looks out for that.

This is the result of util/scripts/no-fsf-addresses.sh with no further
editing.

Patrick Georgi b890a1228d Remove address from GPLv2 headers
As per discussion with lawyers[tm], it's not a good idea to
shorten the license header too much - not for legal reasons
but because there are tools that look for them, and giving
them a standard pattern simplifies things.

However, we got confirmation that we don't have to update
every file ever added to coreboot whenever the FSF gets a
new lease, but can drop the address instead.

util/kconfig is excluded because that's imported code that
we may want to synchronize every now and then.
