Currently u-root doesn't build for various reasons.
1. The boot cmds have changed. Some have been removed and the default
has changed to the 'boot' cmd for loading an OS.
2. The elvish shell has been removed as default shell. The gosh is now
the default.
3. For some reason the -uroot-source parameter doesn't exist anymore? So
instead we just cd into the u-root directory and build the initramfs
there.

Currently our coreboot toolchain cannot build the Linux kernel in case
of x86_64. It spits out the following error during build:

```
In order to fix it, we will default to the host toolchain in order to
build x86_64 Linux. For that we add another Kconfig that decides,
whether or not a cross toolchain is used to build Linux.

There were some issues with the current Linuxboot Makefiles.
- multithreaded compilation didn't work, because some prerequisites
were missing
- initramfs wasn't added for x86 qemu boot.
- riscv support was incomplete
It began with separate patches, but resulted in a clean up patch, that
is hard to separate. The most important changes are the following:
- Instead of phony targets, actual files are now used as prerequisites
- riscv can now be used as target
- initramfs works now also for x86
- instead of querying the most recent version from the internet, I set a
known working version (because I tested it) that can be customized
and/or upgraded in the future. The reasons:
- querying the version from the internet requires a constant
connection to the internet even after linux kernel is already
build (aka subsequent builds).
- one usually wants to use a known working version, but optionally
still have the posibillity to choose a custom one. This patch
introduces this possibility in its most simple form.
- I removed as much ifeq statements as possible and moved that
responsibility to Kconfig, because they tend to make the
Makefile less readable.

In addition to change CB:40316 this commit proposes a change of default
behavior inside of the LinuxBoot toolchain.
Currently the defaults build a LinuxBoot payload which boots into the
u-root shell and waits for input. In fact it does not deliver any
bootloader with it, but the build image is on the other hand rather
small.
This commit changes the defaults in a way that the LinuxBoot
bootloader will actually be able to boot a local or remote system image.
In consequence the build payload size is rather big, but accepted for a
working out-of-the-box startup behavior.
See discussion on that topic in the above mentioned change.

The u-root toolkit dropped the original uinit bootloader in the master
branch and respectively the systemboot-option in templates.go. In
consequence the LinuxBoot builds will boot into the u-root shell and
waiting for input. This commit enables the reuse of the -uinitcmd flag
to specify a command, which runs after the u-root init-process.
Systemboot as a bootloader wrapper will mimic a BIOS/UEFI boot device
selection. Other preselections, i.e. stboot and boot2 are implemented as
well. Custom strings or programs can be set as well, but they cannot
contain program flags. E.g. 'fbnetboot -class linuxboot' will not work,
because they aren't symlinkable.
This commit and its respective LinuxBoot builds with systemboot, none
and one custom option have been tested successfully on a UP squared
single board computer with the intended behavior.

This is a breaking change for now when using latest u-root main, which
is the default behavior in LinuxBoot.
u-root switched to golang modules and therefore `go get` is not the
standard behavior anymore. The workaround for this is to pull the
repository and build directly in the directory for now. Another apporach
would be to use `go install $pkg@latest` to install the binary at that
particular version into the golang binary path.
Currently missing is a control structure to enable the build process for
legacy versions <v0.8.0.
