This ports built-in firmware to use linker tables, this replaces the custom section solution with a generic solution. This also demos the use of the .rodata (SECTION_RO) linker tables. Tested with 0 built-in firmware, 1 and 2 built-in firmwares successfully. v3: o explicitly include tables.h as we no longer include tables.h from sections.h o use new section_tbl_asmtype() helper on firmware/Makefile to enable having to unfold things on our own. v2: introduced this file in this version of the series Signed-off-by: Luis R.
