The sections described in the sandbox linker script are inserted before
data section via "INSERT BEFORE .data;". Running readelf -S on sandbox
u-boot binary shows that the bss section is located after the data
section:

This means that the __bss_start assignment in the linker script is bogus,
as the actual bss section start is located elsewhere. Remove this
assignment, as the __bss_start symbol is not used on sandbox anyway.

This partially reverts commit 7e21fbca26.
That change broke sandbox EFI support for unknown reasons. It also changes
sandbox to use--gc-sections which we don't want.
For now I am just reverting the sandbox portion as presumably this change
is safe on other architectures.

Something went wrong when writing the sandbox linker scripts and so we
ended up with a .bss section marker right before the efi runtime sections.
That obviously is a terrible idea, as it may result in overwriting efi
runtime code and data. So let's move the .bss identifier behind the efi
sections.

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.

for sandbox so that the EFI loader code will link.

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.

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.

The command declaration now uses the new LG-array method to generate
list of commands. Thus the __u_boot_cmd section is now superseded and
redundant and therefore can be removed. Also, remove externed symbols
associated with this section from include/command.h .

Add section for the linker-generated lists into all possible linker
files, so that everyone can easily use these lists. This is mostly
a mechanical adjustment.

This adds simple command-line parsing to sandbox. The idea is that it
sets up the state with options provided, and this state can then be
queried later, as needed.
New flags are declared with the SB_CMDLINE_OPT_SHORT helper macro,
pointers are automatically gathered up in a special section, and
then the core code takes care of gathering them up and processing
at runtime. This way there is no central place where we have to
store a list of flags with ifdefs.

This is an initial implementation with all functions defined but not working.
The lds file is very simple since we can mostly rely on the linker defaults.
