arch/x86: Configure EBDA through Kconfig
EBDA (Extended BIOS Data Area) is a memory area below 0xA0000 and one of the default areas where OS will scan ACPI RSDP pointer from. coreboot's default EBDA's starting address is 0xF6000, which is in PAM (Programmable Attribute Map) F-segment's scope. For some platforms without writeable PAM-F segment (e.g. some simics virtual platforms), corboot's default EBDA is not writable. Make DEFAULT_EBDA_LOWMEM, DEFAULT_EBDA_SEGMENT, DEFAULT_EBDA_SIZE as Kconfig items so that coreboot's EBDA could be relocated to a writable low memory place.
