Documentation: Remove confusing xyz0 naming convention for Lenovo devices
Replace xx30 with Ivy_Bridge and xx20 with Sandy_Bridge. Also add a note that the Ivy_Bridge tutorial doesn't covert T430s and T431s.

## Flashing coreboot

## Installation instructions
|
||||
* Update the EC firmware, as there's no support for EC updates in coreboot.
|
||||
* Do **NOT** accidently swap pins or power on the board while a SPI flasher
|
||||
is connected. It will destroy your device.
|
||||
* It's recommended to only flash the BIOS region. In that case you don't
|
||||
need to extract blobs from vendor firmware.
|
||||
If you want to flash the whole chip, you need blobs when building
|
||||
coreboot.
|
||||
* The shipped *Flash layout* allocates 3MiB to the BIOS region, which is the space
|
||||
usable by coreboot.
|
||||
* ROM chip size should be set to 8MiB.
|
||||
|
||||
```eval_rst
|
||||
Please also have a look at :doc:`../../flash_tutorial/index`.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Flash layout
|
||||
There's one 8MiB flash which contains IFD, GBE, ME and BIOS regions.
|
||||
On Lenovo's UEFI the EC firmware update is placed at the start of the BIOS
|
||||
region. The update is then written into the EC once.
