Add coreboot utilities #229

cbmem is a utility to access the “coreboot memory region” CBMEM in memory. Unfortunately, it’s not in its separate repository, so the bee file has to be adapted, and the whole coreboot source needs to be downloaded. Use the git hash in the output of `git describe --tags` as extra version. ``` $ cbmem --help $ sudo cbmem -c # show console messages $ sudo cbmem -t # show time stamps ```

cbfstool is the utility to work with the “coreboot filesystem” CBFS, which is used to store files in the ROM image. Unfortunately, it’s not in its separate repository, so the bee file has to be adapted, and the whole coreboot source needs to be downloaded. Use the git hash in the output of `git describe --tags` as extra version. ``` $ cbfstool --help $ cbfstool build/coreboot.rom print ```

nvramtool is a utility to read and write to the NVRAM (CMOS). With coreboot it can be used to configure certain options. Unfortunately, it’s not in its separate repository, so the bee file has to be adapted, and the whole coreboot source needs to be downloaded. Use the git hash in the output of `git describe --tags` as extra version. ``` $ nvramtool --help $ nvramtool -a ```
