cbfs: Add metadata cache
This patch adds a new CBFS "mcache" (metadata cache) -- a memory buffer that stores the headers of all CBFS files. Similar to the existing FMAP cache, this cache should reduce the amount of SPI accesses we need to do every boot: rather than having to re-read all CBFS headers from SPI flash every time we're looking for a file, we can just walk the same list in this in-memory copy and finally use it to directly access the flash at the right position for the file data. This patch adds the code to support the cache but doesn't enable it on any platform. The next one will turn it on by default.
