Besides this, there are only two more parts:
1. add more flags to compilation of all mainboards (debug symbols, line
numbers, verbose assembly)
2. create .disasm files of crto and coreboot, containing the disassembly
(in src/config/Config.lb)

I did a full abuild run with the debug symbols on, using a payload that
leaves barely enough space for coreboot without these changes in most
ROMs (4kb or so more, and many of the boards failed).
All boards built just the same with debug symbols, so increase in size
(if any) should be acceptable.

The only drawback was that the tree was much larger, as the non-stripped
coreboot binary was 2-3 times the size, the disassembly of all coreboot
images takes some space, ...

I first thought about splitting the regex off, too - but seriously, the
other stuff is just as repetitive (same file, even), and imho
functionally trivial (but potentially a large impact, thus the tests)
