Rename the sections used to implement linker lists so they begin with
'__u_boot_list' rather than '.u_boot_list'. The double underscore at the
start is still distinct from the single underscore used by the symbol
names.
Having a '.' in the section names conflicts with clang's ASAN
instrumentation which tries to add redzones between the linker list
elements, causing expected accesses to fail. However, clang doesn't try
to add redzones to user sections, which are names with all alphanumeric
and underscore characters.

When switching to kernel.org x86_64 gcc 11.1.0 toolchain, u-boot.rom
built from qemu-x86_defconfig no longer boots anymore. Investigation
shows that U-Boot fails at a very early stage during the boot process,
in fdtdec_prepare_fdt() where fdt_check_header() complains that there
is not a valid device tree found at gd->fdt_blob which points to _end.
Now _end points to an allocated section .note.gnu.property which of
course is wrong.
This issue is however not seen when using the default Ubuntu 20.04 gnu
toolchain (gcc 9.3.0 with binutils 2.34). Further investigation shows
that it is caused by a behavior change of binutils v2.36 which is part
of the kernel.org gcc 11.1.0 toolchain, via the following commit:
939b95c77bf2 ("Linux/x86: Configure gas with --enable-x86-used-note by default")
In fact, there was already a regression bug report [1] for binutils two
months ago, but the binutils folks did not think it is a bug :(
To resolve this, there are several options:
* pass -Wa,-mx86-used-note=no to gas
* pass -R .note.gnu.property to objcopy
* discard the section in the linker script
Linux kernel uses the discard way [2], so let's do the same for U-Boot.

When we build with -fdata-sections we may end up with bss subsections. Our
linker script explicitly lists only a single consecutive bss section though.
Adapt the statement to also include subsections.
This fixes booting efi-x86_app_defconfig.

Some times gcc may generate data that is then used within code that may
be part of an efi runtime section. That data could be jump tables,
constants or strings.
In order to make sure we catch these, we need to ensure that gcc emits
them into a section that we can relocate together with all the other
efi runtime bits. This only works if the -ffunction-sections and
-fdata-sections flags are passed and the efi runtime functions are
in a section that starts with ".text".
Up to now we had all efi runtime bits in sections that did not
interfere with the normal section naming scheme, but this forces
us to do so. Hence we need to move the efi_loader text/data/rodata
sections before the global *(.text*) catch-all section.
With this patch in place, we should hopefully have an easier time
to extend the efi runtime functionality in the future.

[agraf: Fix x86_64 breakage]
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.

Add the required pieces to support the EFI loader on x86.
Since U-Boot only builds for 32-bit on x86, only a 32-bit EFI application
is supported. If a 64-bit kernel must be booted, U-Boot supports this
directly using FIT (see doc/uImage.FIT/kernel.its). U-Boot can act as a
payload for both 32-bit and 64-bit EFI.

Refactor linker-generated array code so that symbols
which were previously linker-generated are now compiler-
generated. This causes relocation records of type
R_ARM_ABS32 to become R_ARM_RELATIVE, which makes
code which uses LGA able to run before relocation as
well as after.
Note: this affects more than ARM targets, as linker-
lists span possibly all target architectures, notably
PowerPC.
