commonlib/bsd: Add new CBFS core implementation
This patch adds a new CBFS implementation that is intended to replace the existing commonlib/cbfs.c. The new implementation is designed to meet a bunch of current and future goals that in aggregate make it easier to start from scratch than to adapt the exisiting implementation: 1. Be BSD-licensed so it can evetually be shared with libpayload. 2. Allow generating/verifying a metadata hash for future CBFS per-file verification (see [1][2]). 3. Be very careful about reading (not mmaping) all data only once, to be suitable for eventual TOCTOU-safe verification. 4. Make it possible to efficiently implement all current and future firmware use cases (both with and without verification). The main primitive is the cbfs_walk() function which will traverse a CBFS and call a callback for every file. cbfs_lookup() uses this to implement the most common use case of finding a file so that it can be read. A host application using this code (e.g. coreboot, libpayload, cbfstool) will need to provide a <cbfs_glue.h> header to provide the glue to access the respective CBFS storage backend implementation. This patch merely adds the code, the next patch will integrate it into coreboot.
