Frank Vibrans 2b4c831b4d Add AMD Agesa and AMD CIMx SB800 code. Patch 1 of 8.
This code currently generates many warnings that are functionally benign.  These are being addressed, but the wheels of bureaucracy turn slowly.  This drop supports AMD cpu families 10h and 14h.  Only Family 14h is used as an example in this set of patches.  Other cpu families are supported by the infrastructure, but their specific support is not included herein.  This patch is functionally independent of the other patches in this set.

/**
* @page starthere Initial Porting and Integration
*
* @par Basic Check List
*
* <ul>
* <li> Copy the \<plat\>Options.c file from the Addendum directory to the platform tip build directory.
* AMD recommends the use of a sub-directory named AGESA to contain these files and the build output files.
* <li> Copy the OptionsIds.h content in the spec to OptionsIds.h in the platform build tip directory
* and make changes to enable the IDS support desired. It is highly recommended to set the following for
* initial integration and development:@n
* @code
* #define IDSOPT_IDS_ENABLED TRUE
* #define IDSOPT_ERROR_TRAP_ENABLED TRUE
* #define IDSOPT_ASSERT_ENABLED TRUE
* @endcode
* <li> Edit and modify the option selections in those two files to meet the needs of the specific platform.
* <li> Set the environment variable AGESA_ROOT to the root folder of the AGESA code.
* <li> Set the environment variable AGESA_OptsDir the platform build tip AGESA directory.
* <li> Generate the doxygen documentation or locate the file arch2008.chm within your AGESA release package.
* </ul>
*
* @par Debugging Using ASSERT and IDS_ERROR_TRAP
*
* While AGESA code uses ::ASSERT and ::IDS_ERROR_TRAP to check for internal errors, these macros can also
* catch and assist debug of wrapper and platform BIOS issues.
*
* When an ::ASSERT fails or an ::IDS_ERROR_TRAP is executed, the AGESA code will enter a halt loop and display a
* Stop Code. A Stop Code is eight hex digits. The first (most significant) four are the FILECODE.
* FILECODEs can be looked up in Filecode.h to determine which file contains the stop macro. Each file has a
* unique code value.
* The least significant digits are the line number in that file.
* For example, 0210 means the macro is on line two hundred ten.
* (see ::IdsErrorStop for more details on stop code display.)
*
* Enabling ::ASSERT and ::IDS_ERROR_TRAP ensure errors are caught and also provide a useful debug assist.
* Comments near each macro use will describe the nature of the error and typical wrapper errors or other
* root causes.
*
* After your wrapper consistently executes ::ASSERT and ::IDS_ERROR_TRAP stop free, you can disable them in
* OptionsIds.h, except for regression testing. IDS is not expected to be enabled in production BIOS builds.
