right now u-boot can bring up the PCIe bus such that Linux only requires
a very minimal driver. this new --u-boot flag for linux.py allows to
load u-boot before the Linux kernel to make use of this.
This requires a small hack to inject the booti command into the default
u-boot boot environment.

Some people apparently have the patience to load KASAN kernels over
serial :-)
Also bump the python-managed heap to 1GB.

3 second faster load and uncompress time for small kernel
(5.6M uncompressed, 2.1M gz and 1.6M xz). Compression method is
autodetect by the filename suffix or can be set by the '--compression'
command line option.
Also supports uncompressed payloads (no auto detection).

I saw at least one SError crash on Linux after doing this, but can't
repro; unclear if related to the MMU changes or not...
