When updating firmware, it is very often that we may want to preserve
few sections, for example vital product data (VPD) including serial
number, calibration data and cache. A firmware updater has to hard-code
the section names that need to be preserved and is hard to maintain.
A better approach is to specify that in FMAP area flags (the `area_flag`
field) using FMAP_AREA_PRESERVE. With this patchset, a FMD parser flag
"PRESERVE" is introduced and will be converted to FMAP_AREA_PRESERVE
when generating FMAP data (by fmap_from_fmd.c).
For example, The FMD statement:
RO_VPD(PRESERVE)@0x0 16k
will generate an FMAP firmware section that:
area_name = "RO_VPD"
area_offset = 0
area_size = 16384
area_flags = FMAP_AREA_PRESERVE
BUG=chromium:936768
TEST=make; boots on x86 "google/eve" and arm "google/kukui" devices
Manually added 'PRESERVE' to some FMD files, and verify (by running
fmap.py) the output coreboot.rom has FMAP_AREA_PRESERVE set

The idea of "annotation" for firmware sections was pretty flexible, but
in future we will want multiple attributes applied to same area. For
example, indicate the section must be preserved when updating firmware
so serial number or MAC address can be preserved.
The solution here is to extend annotation so it can take multiple
identifiers (flags) in a row. For example, to declare a 64KB COREBOOT
section as CBFS using annotation:
COREBOOT(CBFS)@0x0 64k
If there's a new flag "PRESERVE" indicating the section must be
preserved before update, we can declare it following CBFS flag:
COREBOOT(CBFS PRESERVE)@0x0 64k
The flags are directly parsed in fmd_parser, and stored in an union
flashmap_flags. Output modules can choose to ignore or process the
flags.
Currently the only supported flag is "CBFS" (for backward compatible
with annotation). There will be more new flags in follow up patches.

Due to a newer flex version with which the scanner was recreated, we
also have to make the compiler less strict on the generated code.

As per discussion with lawyers[tm], it's not a good idea to
shorten the license header too much - not for legal reasons
but because there are tools that look for them, and giving
them a standard pattern simplifies things.
However, we got confirmation that we don't have to update
every file ever added to coreboot whenever the FSF gets a
new lease, but can drop the address instead.
util/kconfig is excluded because that's imported code that
we may want to synchronize every now and then.
