Vitali64 cff081c6db Fix grub's slow boot
On many boards, grub takes a very long time to
search for a grub.cfg file on the disk.
The problem is the search_grub function which
takes a long time to complete.
I (vitali64) studied the grub.cfg from 2016 and
the grub.cfg from 2021 and optimized the
grub.cfg. It should be faster now.

Leah Rowe 9938fa14b1 Fix broken SpeedStep on GM45 laptops such as ThinkPad X200, T400, T500, W500
Coreboot is enabling PECI on these CPUs which, according to Intel erratum, must
only be done after loading microcode updates, otherwise the CPUID feature set
becomes corrupted. That's my understanding, and I think this is why SpeedStep
is broken. To be specific, it could but but operating systems no longer detect
that the feature is supported. In any case, belgin on IRC found the commit in
coreboot, after a bisect, enabling PECI. This commit in Libreboot adds a patch,
reverting coreboot's PECI patch.

Leah Rowe eed25bd220 update coreboot and nuke tianocore
tianocore is a liability for the libreboot project. it's a bloated mess, and
unreliable, broken on many boards, and basically impossible to audit.

i don't trust tianocore, so i'm removing it.

Leah Rowe cca23ac713 nuke d8/d16 configs for 4mb/8mb setups. only have 2mb and 16mb configs
4mb and 8mb users can just pad their roms to 16mb, using the instructions on
<https://libreboot.org/faq.html#how-do-i-pad-a-rom-before-flashing>

maintaining them in lbmk is a waste of time, and also a hazard because it's a
lot of duplicated labour when making any changes, which could result in awful
mistakes being made

Leah Rowe c2720c58e7 lenovo/t400: Enable all SATA ports (add persmule's patch)
See:
<https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/libreboot/2016-08/msg00063.html>

This enables all SATA ports, allowing full T400s compatibility. T400s already
works just fine, when flashing a T400 ROM, but not all SATA ports were usable.

The specific patch is here:
<https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/libreboot/2016-08/txtgT_L8DC94R.txt>

There was also this patch, which coreboot actually adapted upstream:
<https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/libreboot/2016-08/txtMXyws85Q_P.txt>

Yes, this patch was submitted in 2016. I overlooked it, during all this time.

Leah Rowe 7c998b4538 grub.cfg: search usb *last*, in the main menuentry
There is already a separate menuentry for USB, and most people don't boot their
installed system from USB anyway. This will result in faster boot speeds.

mitigate missing characters in unifont for border/arrow characters. this saves
space because now it is no longer necessary to add a custom font

the background added has the libreboot logo on it, and it's 10kb in size unlike
the old gnulove background that was hundreds of KB

Leah Rowe 49198fe3d1 Disable PIKE2008 option ROM loading on KGPE-D16/KCMA-D8
These option ROMs are known to cause a system hang. If you insert an empty
option ROM into CBFS, it disables any option ROM loading for those devices
when using SeaBIOS.
