fbwhiptail scales its UI based on the display size. FBWHIPTAIL_SCALE
can set a specific scale factor for testing.
fbwhiptail no longer looks for a 1080p mode when the default mode is
2160p.

Build kbd and ship setfont if enabled with CONFIG_KBD.
When CONFIG_KBD is enabled, setconsolefont.sh will double the console
font size on large displays (>1600 lines tall as a heuristic).

Updated cbmem searches for CBMEM exposed by kernel in sysfs before
trying to read it from memory directly. As such, there is no need for
pointing to that file explicitly.
New coreboot revision also fixes output of 'cbmem -t' caused by wrong
endianness.

Update flashrom - in particular, this includes support for new chipsets
like Jasper Lake.
CONFIG_INTERAL_X86 was created so CONFIG_INTERNAL could apply to other
platforms, enable it for x86.
The default build target now requires sphinx, just build flashrom
itself.
Update flashrom_progress - filter out noise in newer flashrom that
chokes the progress bar implementation, make size detection more
robust, improve progress bar implementation slightly.

Debian 12's initrd by default now consists of an uncompressed cpio
archive containing microcode, followed by a zstd-compressed cpio
archive. inject_firmware.sh only supported gzip-compressed cpio, so it
could not extract /init from this archive.
Add zstd-decompress to decompress zstd streams (uncompressed size is
about 180 KB).
Add unpack_initramfs.sh which is able to decompress uncompressed, gzip,
or zstd archives, with multiple segments, much like the Linux kernel
itself does.
Use unpack_initramfs.sh to extract /init for blob jail.
Don't compress the new archive segment containing firmware and the
updated /init.

These changes primarily improve server boards using BMC video. The
correct DRI card is selected even if it isn't the first one, and
performance is greatly improved on non-UMA cards.

This is particularly beneficial for servers with Aspeed BMC video,
because it introduces framebuffer console acceleration. The
framebuffer console is much more responsive.
Patches were ported from 5.10.5:
0001-fake-acpi.patch: This may not be needed any more, but it applies
cleanly and I don't think it would harm anything.
0002-nmi-squelch.patch: The comment mentions qemu but I see this
message on physical machines occasionally, so I think this is needed.
0003-fake-trampoline.patch: This patch does not apply cleanly. It
could be ported, but I don't think it's needed, I dropped it. Dates
back to a very old commit where Linux was being embedded into a vendor
UEFI firmware: a4d7654b1e.
0010-winterfell-ahci.patch: Minor change of %x to %lx in context.

On some newer platforms of intel (confirmed on nehalem, sandy/ivy
bridge), coreboot after commit [2ac149d294af795710eb4bb20f093e9920604abd](https://review.coreboot.org/cgit/coreboot.git/commit/?id=2ac149d294af795710eb4bb20f093e9920604abd)
registers an SMI to lockdown some registers on the chipset, as well
as access to the SPI flash, optionally. The SMI will always be triggered
by coreboot during S3 resume, but can be triggered by either coreboot
or the payload during normal boot path.
Enabling lockdown access to SPI flash will effectly write-protect it,
but there is no runtime option for coreboot to control it, so letting
coreboot to trigger such SMI will leave the owner of the machine lost
any possibility to program the SPI flash with its own OS, and becomes
a nightmare if the machine is uneasy to disassemble, so a scheme could
be implement, in which the SMI to lockdown chipset and SPI flash is left
for a payload to trigger, and temporarily disabling such triggering in
order to program the SPI flash needs authentication.
I have implemented a passcode-protected runtime-disableable lockdown
with grub, described [here](https://github.com/hardenedlinux/Debian-GNU-Linux-Profiles/blob/master/docs/hardened_boot/grub-for-coreboot.md#update-for-coreboot-after-commit-2ac149d294af795710eb4bb20f093e9920604abd). In order to implement a similar scheme for
Heads, I wrote [io386](https://github.com/hardenedlinux/io386).
With this commit, io386 will be called before entering boot routine
to trigger the SMI to finalize the chipset and write protect the SPI
flash at the same time. Entering recovery shell will leave the flash
writable.
(The authentication routine implemented in previous revisions has been
split as an independent commit.)

Most useful to me are:

coreboot.modify_and_save_oldconfig_in_place
linux.modify_and_save_oldconfig_in_place
linux.modify_and_save_defconfig_in_place
Which permit to take current in tree configs and translate them into other format.
This is useful when trying to version bump and build.
Also add helpers to save in versioned version to facilitate change tracking:
linux.generate_and_save-versioned-oldconfig
linux.regenerate_and_save_versioned_defconfig
Update kexec to 2.0.26. Add tracing to framebuffer initialization. In
