We have too many acronyms to keep track of. At one point, AMD and
Intel used to use the same terms for things, but no longer. When I
look at Intel patches now, I have no idea what they mean anymore.
When I started trying to do the release notes, I kept having to
look up the acronyms, so I figured I'd make a list.

Boards using VBOOT_VBNV_EC (nyan, daisy, veyron, peach_pit) are all
ChromeOS devices and they've reached the end of life since Feb 2022.
Therefore, remove VBOOT_VBNV_EC for them, each with different
replacement.
- nyan (nyan, nyan_big, nyan_blaze): Add RW_NVRAM to their FMAP (by
reducing the size of RW_VPD), and replace VBOOT_VBNV_EC with
VBOOT_VBNV_FLASH.
- veyron: Add RW_NVRAM to their FMAP (by reducing the size of
SHARED_DATA), and replace VBOOT_VBNV_EC with VBOOT_VBNV_FLASH. Also
enlarge the OVERLAP_VERSTAGE_ROMSTAGE section for rk3288 (by reducing
the size of PRERAM_CBMEM_CONSOLE), so that verstage won't exceed its
allotted size.
- daisy: Because BOOT_DEVICE_SPI_FLASH is not set, which is required for
VBOOT_VBNV_FLASH, disable MAINBOARD_HAS_CHROMEOS and VBOOT configs.
- peach_pit: As VBOOT is not set, simply remove the unused VBOOT_VBNV_EC
option.
Remove the VBOOT_VBNV_EC Kconfig option as well as related code, leaving
VBOOT_VBNV_FLASH and VBOOT_VBNV_CMOS as the only two backend options for
vboot nvdata (VBNV).
Also add a check in read_vbnv() and save_vbnv() for VBNV options.

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".
