Angel Pons 1caa279325 cpu/intel/haswell: Do not include useless µcode updates
There are two types of Haswell/Broadwell platforms: Trad(itional) with
separate CPU and PCH packages, and ULT/ULX where the CPU and PCH share
one package. Mainboards can specify which platform type they are using
the `INTEL_LYNXPOINT_LP` Kconfig option. There are so many differences
between Trad and ULT/ULX that it's not worth doing runtime detection.

The CPUIDs are different for Trad and ULT/ULX platforms, and so are the
µcode updates. So, including Trad µcode updates in a coreboot image for
an ULT/ULX mainboard makes no sense, and vice versa.

Adapt the Makefile so that only relevant µcode updates are added. Also,
add a few comments to indicate which updates correspond to which CPUs.

TEST=Run binwalk on coreboot.rom to verify included µcode updates for:
     - Asrock B85M Pro4 (Haswell Trad)
     - HP Folio 9480M (Haswell ULT/ULX)
     - Purism Librem BDW (Broadwell ULT/ULX)
