Allow to build romstage sources inside the bootblock
Having a separate romstage is only desirable:
- with advanced setups like vboot or normal/fallback
- boot medium is slow at startup (some ARM SOCs)
- bootblock is limited in size (Intel APL 32K)
When this is not the case there is no need for the extra complexity
that romstage brings. Including the romstage sources inside the
bootblock substantially reduces the total code footprint. Often the
resulting code is 10-20k smaller.
This is controlled via a Kconfig option.
TESTED: works on qemu x86, arm and aarch64 with and without VBOOT.
