coreboot: introduce CONFIG_RELOCATABLE_RAMSTAGE
This patch adds an option to build the ramstage as a reloctable binary.
It uses the rmodule library for the relocation. The main changes
consist of the following:
1. The ramstage is loaded just under the cmbem space.
2. Payloads cannot be loaded over where ramstage is loaded. If a payload
is attempted to load where the relocatable ramstage resides the load
is aborted.
3. The memory occupied by the ramstage is reserved from the OS's usage
using the romstage_handoff structure stored in cbmem. This region is
communicated to ramstage by an CBMEM_ID_ROMSTAGE_INFO entry in cbmem.
4. There is no need to reserve cbmem space for the OS controlled memory for
the resume path because the ramsage region has been reserved in #3.
5. Since no memory needs to be preserved in the wake path, the loading
and begin of execution of a elf payload is straight forward.
