Any 'bootable' flag in a DOS partition causes boostd to only scan
bootable partitions for that media. This can mean that extlinux.conf
files on the root disk are missed.
Put this logic behind a flag and update the documentation.
For now, the flag is enabled, to preserve the existing behaviour of
bootstd which is to ignore non-bootable partitions so long as there is
at least one bootable partition on the disk. Future work may provide a
command (or some other mechanism) to control this.

The DM_FLAG_PROBE_AFTER_BIND flag only makes sense on a per-device
basis, however recently added documentation as well as some confused
drivers imply that it might be added to a driver definition, this does
nothing.
Clarify the new documentation and expand on the comment by the
definition to point people in the right direction.

This fixture name is quite long and results in lots of verbose code.
We know this is U-Boot so the 'u_boot_' part is not necessary.
But it is also a bit of a misnomer, since it provides access to all the
information available to tests. It is not just the console.
It would be too confusing to use con as it would be confused with
config and it is probably too short.
So shorten it to 'ubman'.

This series provides a way to keep track of the images used in bootstd,
including the type of each image.
At present this is sort-of handled by struct bootflow but in quite an
ad-hoc way. The structure has become quite large and is hard to query.
Future work will be able to reduce its size.
Ultimately the 'bootflow info' command may change to also show images as
a list, but that is left for later, as this series is already fairly
long. So for now, just introduce the concept and adjust bootstd to use
it, with a simple command to list the images.
This series includes various alist enhancements, to make use of this new
data structure a little easier.
[trini: Drop patch 18 and 19 for now due to size considerations]

Rather than doing autoprobe within the driver model code, move it out to
the board-init code. This makes it clear that it is a separate step from
binding devices.
For now this is always done twice, before and after relocation, but we
should discuss whether it might be possible to drop the post-relocation
probe.
For boards with SPL, the autoprobe is still done there as well.
Note that with this change, autoprobe happens after the
EVT_DM_POST_INIT_R/F events are sent, rather than before.

Based on the existing work done by Simon Glass this series adds
support for booting aarch64 devices using ACPI only.
As first target QEMU SBSA support is added, which relies on ACPI
only to boot an OS. As secondary target the Raspberry Pi4 was used,
which is broadly available and allows easy testing of the proposed
solution.
The series is split into ACPI cleanups and code movements, adding
Arm specific ACPI tables and finally SoC and mainboard related
changes to boot a Linux on the QEMU SBSA and RPi4. Currently only the
mandatory ACPI tables are supported, allowing to boot into Linux
without errors.
The QEMU SBSA support is feature complete and provides the same
functionality as the EDK2 implementation.
The changes were tested on real hardware as well on QEMU v9.0:
qemu-system-aarch64 -machine sbsa-ref -nographic -cpu cortex-a57 \
-pflash secure-world.rom \
-pflash unsecure-world.rom
qemu-system-aarch64 -machine raspi4b -kernel u-boot.bin -cpu cortex-a72 \
-smp 4 -m 2G -drive file=raspbian.img,format=raw,index=0 \
-dtb bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb -nographic
Tested against FWTS V24.03.00.
Known issues:
- The QEMU rpi4 support is currently limited as it doesn't emulate PCI,
USB or ethernet devices!
- The SMP bringup doesn't work on RPi4, but works in QEMU (Possibly
cache related).
- PCI on RPI4 isn't working on real hardware since the pcie_brcmstb
Linux kernel module doesn't support ACPI yet.

Add support for Arm sbsa [1] v0.3+ that is supported by QEMU [2].
Unlike other Arm based platforms the machine only provides a minimal
FDT that contains number of CPUs, ammount of memory and machine-version.
The boot firmware has to provide ACPI tables to the OS.
Due to this design a full DTB is added here as well that allows U-Boot's
driver to properly function. The DTB is appended at the end of the U-Boot
image and will be merged with the QEMU provided DTB.
In addition provide documentation how to use, enable binman to fabricate both
ROMs that are required to boot and add ACPI tables to make it full compatible
to the EDK2 reference implementation.
The board was tested using Fedora 40 Aarch64 Workstation. It's able
to boot from USB and AHCI or network.
Tested and found working:
- serial
- PCI
- xHCI
- Bochs display
- AHCI
- network using e1000e
- CPU init
- Booting Fedora 40

At present a fixed position is used for menu items, 200 pixels to the
right of the left side of the labels. This means that a menu item with
a very long label may overlap the items.
It seems better to calculate the maximum label width and then place the
items to the right of all of them.
To implement this, add a new struct to containing arrangement
information. Calculate it before doing the actual arrangement. Add a
new style item which sets the amount of space from the right side of
the labels to left side of the items.
