[WIP]x86: Introduce the blobolator
This is a PoC to run arbitrary code and blobs inside an emulated virtual machine using libx86emu, thus the name blobolator.
The libx86emu has been patched to the following: * redirect IO to the host machine it's running on * trace IO * start in protected mode * add mechanism to drop IO access * add Kconfig to debug code it is running
Implemented features: * Run ramstage in libx86emu * Run postcar in libx86emu
TODO: * Add support to trace only blobs, not stages. * Improve translation of known IO to human readable format ** COM ** PCI ** APIC ** PIT ** POST
Tested on qemu. Sucessfully run ramstage in blobolator. Tested on X11SSH-TF. Sucessfully run ramstage in blobolator (requires additional libx86emu patches).
