[coreboot] Query to release the code for new board

[Martin Roth]

Hi Mayuri,
  coreboot does not share the TXE or descriptor.bin files for the
boards.  In the instructions from Intel for the BayleyBay CRB, it
tells you to build coreboot as a 3MB rom file and to flash that to the
top of the ROM chip, so as to not overwrite the TXE & Descriptor on
the board.

That said, since you own a Minnowboard Turbot, you can get the full
UEFI rom file and extract the descriptor & TXE files from there using
ifdtool -x.
See the build script for the Minnowboard Max:
