mb/dell: Add Latitude E6420 (Sandy Bridge)
Mainboard is PAL50/LA-6591P (UMA). The version with an Nvidia dGPU was not tested. I do not physically have this system; someone with physical access to one sent me the output of autoport which I then modified to produce this port. I was also sent the VBT binary, which was obtained from `/sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_vbt` while running version A25 of the vendor firmware.
This was originally tested and found to be working as a standalone board port in Libreboot, but this variant based port in upstream coreboot has not been tested.
This can be internally flashed by sending a command to the EC, which causes the EC to pull the FDO pin low and the firmware to skip setting up any chipset based write protections [1]. The EC is the SMSC MEC5055, which seems to be compatible with the existing MEC5035 code.
