Add a missing period, use "SoC" with lowercase 'o' to refer to a "System
on a Chip", fix up the redundant "CRB board" expression (that stands for
"Customer Reference Board board"), switch the position of a verb and its
adverb ("never was" ---> "was never") to sound more natural, and replace
"depreciate" with "deprecate" for semantic correctness.

The SoC Intel Quark is unmaintained and various efforts to revive it
failed. Thus, deprecate the following components with the 4.18 release.
* Intel Quark SoC
* Intel Galileo mainboard
The support for these components will be dropped with the release 4.20.

Some mainboards have a header connected to the SPI bus, which can be
used to connect a second flash chip and override the onboard flash. This
allows one to boot coreboot on the system without ever having to flash
the onboard flash. HP boards with this header all seem to use the same
2x8 or 2x10 header layout, so document the pinout.

Move the devicetree driver example into a separate page under the
drivers category, and link to it from both the devicetree page and
the drivers index page. This makes more sense from a grouping
perspective and makes the info easier to find.

coreboot uses TianoCore interchangeably with EDK II, and whilst the
meaning is generally clear, it's not the payload it uses. EDK II is
commonly written as edk2.
coreboot builds edk2 directly from the edk2 repository. Whilst it
can build some components from edk2-platforms, the target is still
edk2.

firmware development environment for the UEFI and UEFI Platform
Initialization (PI) specifications."

This adds a style file for the markdown linter mdl.
The tool can be found on archive.org at the URL:
https://web.archive.org/web/20220407032312/https://github.com/markdownlint/markdownlint
This does 2 things:
- Sets that line length limit to 72 characters as requested in the docs
about writing the documentation.
- Excludes several rules that were added for a particular markdown
parser. My opinion is that these rules make the text versions of the
markdown harder to read.
To use this style file, run:
$ mdl -s Documentation/.mdl_style.rb

We have too many acronyms to keep track of. At one point, AMD and
Intel used to use the same terms for things, but no longer. When I
look at Intel patches now, I have no idea what they mean anymore.
When I started trying to do the release notes, I kept having to
look up the acronyms, so I figured I'd make a list.

Boards using VBOOT_VBNV_EC (nyan, daisy, veyron, peach_pit) are all
ChromeOS devices and they've reached the end of life since Feb 2022.
Therefore, remove VBOOT_VBNV_EC for them, each with different
replacement.
- nyan (nyan, nyan_big, nyan_blaze): Add RW_NVRAM to their FMAP (by
reducing the size of RW_VPD), and replace VBOOT_VBNV_EC with
VBOOT_VBNV_FLASH.
- veyron: Add RW_NVRAM to their FMAP (by reducing the size of
SHARED_DATA), and replace VBOOT_VBNV_EC with VBOOT_VBNV_FLASH. Also
enlarge the OVERLAP_VERSTAGE_ROMSTAGE section for rk3288 (by reducing
the size of PRERAM_CBMEM_CONSOLE), so that verstage won't exceed its
allotted size.
- daisy: Because BOOT_DEVICE_SPI_FLASH is not set, which is required for
VBOOT_VBNV_FLASH, disable MAINBOARD_HAS_CHROMEOS and VBOOT configs.
- peach_pit: As VBOOT is not set, simply remove the unused VBOOT_VBNV_EC
option.
Remove the VBOOT_VBNV_EC Kconfig option as well as related code, leaving
VBOOT_VBNV_FLASH and VBOOT_VBNV_CMOS as the only two backend options for
vboot nvdata (VBNV).
Also add a check in read_vbnv() and save_vbnv() for VBNV options.
