Add support for the tracing infastructure in coreboot.

The compiler is forced to emmit special functions on every
entry/exit of the function. Add a compile time option
to support it. Function entries will be printed in
the console. The CONFIG_TRACE has more documentation.

Patch for userspace tools will follow.

If enabled, every function will print information to console once
the function is entered. The syntax is ~0xaaaabbbb(0xccccdddd)
the 0xaaaabbbb is the actual function and 0xccccdddd is EIP
of calling function. Please note some printk releated functions
are omitted from trace to have good looking console dumps.
