6a05d849e1 bcm27xx: correct cmdline.txt consoles for procd
Commit [ca8c30208d5e][1] updates procd to handle muliple "console=" on the
kernel command line. This affects Raspberry Pi builds because cmdline.txt
specifies a UART console and a virtual console on HDMI, in that order.

When procd finds multiple consoles on the command line, it attempts to
open /dev/console. Linux uses the [last console][2] for /dev/console, so
procd opens the virtual console on Raspberry Pi. This completely disables
the UART console and causes [strange behavior][3] on the virtual console.
Prior to ca8c30208d5e, procd would always open the first console, which is
the UART console.

The simplest fix without reverting ca8c30208d5e is to swap the order of
console options in cmdline.txt. By putting the UART console last, procd
handles the serial console correctly as before.

7d7aa2fd92 brcm2708: rename target to bcm27xx
This change makes the names of Broadcom targets consistent by using
the common notation based on SoC/CPU ID (which is used internally
anyway), bcmXXXX instead of brcmXXXX.
This is even used for target TITLE in make menuconfig already,
only the short target name used brcm so far.

Despite, since subtargets range from bcm2708 to bcm2711, it seems
appropriate to use bcm27xx instead of bcm2708 (again, as already done
for BOARDNAME).

This also renames the packages brcm2708-userland and brcm2708-gpu-fw.
