272e62cb83 smbios: Allow writing to the coreboot version string
When U-Boot is booted from coreboot the SMBIOS tables are written by
coreboot, not U-Boot. The existing method of updating the BIOS version
string does not work in that case, since gd->smbios_version is only set
when U-Boot writes the tables.

Add a new function which allows the version to be updated by parsing the
tables and writing the string in the correct place. Since coreboot
provides a pointer to the SMBIOS tables in its sysinfo structure, this
makes it easy to do the update.

e9adaa75bb smbios: Add more options for the BIOS version string
At present the version string is obtained from PLAIN_VERSION. Some boards
may want to configure this using the device tree, since the build system
can more easily insert things there after U-Boot itself is built. Add this
option to the code.

Also in some cases the version needs to be generated programmatically,
such as when it is stored elsewhere in the ROM and must be read first.
To handle this, keep a pointer around so that it can be updated later.
This works by storing the last string in the context, since it is easier
than passing out a little-used extra parameter.

Provide a function to update the version string.

dc090586a0 smbios: Use char consistently for the eos member
At present a few of the structs use u8 instead of char. This is a string,
so char is better. Update them.

0e89b85906 smbios: Move smbios_write_type to the C file
This type is not used outside the smbios.c file so there is no need for it
to be in the header file. Move it.

83d290c56f SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel style
When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from.  So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry.  Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.

In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.

This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents.  There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

e663b350f1 smbios: Expose in efi_loader as table
We can pass SMBIOS easily as EFI configuration table to an EFI payload. This
patch adds enablement for that case.

While at it, we also enable SMBIOS generation for ARM systems, since they support
EFI_LOADER.

e824cf3fb5 smbios: Allow compilation on 64bit systems
The SMBIOS generation code passes pointers as u32. That causes the compiler
to warn on casts to pointers. This patch moves all address pointers to
uintptr_t instead.

Technically u32 would be enough for the current SMBIOS2 style tables, but
we may want to extend the code to SMBIOS3 in the future which is 64bit
address capable.
