ramstage: introduce boot state machine
The boot flow currently has a fixed ordering. The ordering
is dictated by the device tree and on x86 the PCI device ordering
for when actions are performed. Many of the new machines and
configurations have dependencies that do not follow the device
ordering.
In order to be more flexible the concept of a boot state machine
is introduced. At the boundaries (entry and exit) of each state there
is opportunity to run callbacks. This ability allows one to schedule
actions to be performed without adding board-specific code to
the shared boot flow.
