Recent patches in coreboot have fixed the freeze issues related to the
use of me_cleaner on Nehalem.
However, at least on the Lenovo X201, with me_cleaner some PCIe devices
(like the SATA and USB controllers) disappear. In particular, setting
the AltMeDisable bit ("-S" or "-s" flag) makes them disappear
completely, while unsetting it makes them disappear only during cold
boots.
This kind of behaviour was already observed by Youness Alaoui on the
Purism Librem laptops ([1]), and it seems related to some required
board-specific PCIe configuration in the ME's MFS partition.
For this reason, on the Lenovo X201, "-w EFFS" has been added to the
me_cleaner arguments, which whitelists the MFS-equivalent partition for
ME generation 2. This fixes all the issues, and the PCIe devices work as
expected.

Changelog:
* Add support for the HAP/AltMeDisable bit
* Add support for selective partition removal
* Fix the ME permission removal on gen. 3
* Add public key match
* Print the compressed size of the Huffman modules on gen. 2
* Wipe the ME6 Ignition firmware images
* Fix the removal of the last partition on ME6
* Various region size fixes
* Add manpage
* Add setup.py
* Print the value of the HAP/AltMeDisable bit
The output image should be identical, except for the platforms affected
by bugs (ME 6.x, but it's not supported by coreboot and ME 11.x with the
-d option, but it's not being used in our build process).
Overall, nothing should change when it's used with the
CONFIG_USE_ME_CLEANER option.
Tested on a Lenovo X220 and Sapphire Pure Platinum H61.

Some script files under the `util` directory have no final newline or
multiple final newlines. This is fixed so that an adapted
`util/lint/lint-extended-015-final-newlines` does not bark at them
anymore.

Relevant changes (commit 250b2ec):
* Fix a bug for ME6 Ignition images.
* Fix signature checking for ME11 and later.
* Add command line arguments.
* Add an option to relocate the FTPR partition to the top of the
ME region, recovering most of the ME region space.
* Print the image minimum size.
* Add write boundary checks, to prevent writes on other regions
in case of bugs.
The new changes have been tested on multiple platforms by the
me_cleaner users. They have been tested also on the author's
X220T with coreboot, where the ME region has been shrinked up to
84 kB without any issue.

me_cleaner is a tool to strip down Intel ME/TXE images by removing all
the non-fundamental code, while keeping the ME/TXE image valid and
suitable for booting the system. The remaining code (ROMP and BUP
modules) is the one responsible for the very basic initialization of
the ME/TXE subsystem and can't be removed.
This tool exploits the fact that:
* Each ME/TXE partition is signed individually and it is possible to
remove both the partition and the signature.
* The ME/TXE modules are not signed directly, instead they are hashed
and the list of their hashes is hashed again and signed: this
means that modifying a module doesn't invalidate the signature,
but only the hash of that single module.
* The modules hashes are checked only when the corresponding module
needs to be executed.
* The system can boot after the execution of the first module (BUP,
inside the FTPR partition), even if the subsequent stages fail.
Currently me_cleaner works on every Intel platform with Intel ME or
Intel TXE with the following limitations:
* Doesn't work when Intel Boot Guard is set in Verified Boot mode.
* Doesn't fully work on Nehalem yet.
* On Skylake and later generations, since the partitions' internal
structure has changed, me_cleaner leaves intact the FTPR
partition, removing all the the other partitions.
This tool has been tested on multiple platforms and architectures by
different users, and seems to be stable. The reports are available
here:
