Talos II - Have single board config
- Based on initial server board
- Uses whiptail as opposed to fbwhiptail (was slow and output fuzzy)
 - Simple fix to have dual KVM(BMC) and vga output for consoles

Reasoning for dropping fbwhiptail support is that:
- it is impossible to output framebuffer content through remote BMC console.
- A workstation board config could output to fbwhiptail for VGA and give remote recovery shell access through BMC
  - If someone shows interest for that, qemu-coreboot-tpm boards can be used as reference.
  - slowness/fuzzyness of fbwhiptail output through AST would still need to be fixed in kernel drivers. Not a priority here.

Limitation:
- Since whiptail is sent to both consoles:
 - If one console goes to recovery shell, recovery shell access invalidate TPM PCR4 measurements.
   - The other console won't be aware that TPM measurements were invalidated, and will consequently:
     - not be able to unseal TOTP if refreshed
     - not be able to unseal TPM disk unlock key on default boot
   - A reboot will fix this.
