[coreboot] compulab_ltd/intense-pc: new Ivy Bridge board

Hello all,

This is my first time working with coreboot. I've read the documentation,
but I will probably make many noob mistakes. Sorry in advance!

I've used autoport to create a new port for the CompuLab Intense PC (also
sold as the "MintBox 2").

I've flashed the resulting coreboot.rom (including extracted VGA BIOS, ME,
GbE, and IFD regions from the vendor firmware) and I can boot from USB as
well as the main SATA HDD to Linux. Further testing details are included in
my commit message.

I would really appreciate it if someone could review my changes and provide
feedback. For example, I have no idea about GPIO settings, or USB over
current pins, and probably many more things to be corrected.

I've also added a new Intel socket: FCBGA1023. There's no difference from
other Sandy/Ivy Bridge sockets, but I thought it would be helpful to
differentiate this socket from others (e.g. rPGA989).

There are two changes to add this board:
https://review.coreboot.org/#/c/22209/ : Add support for Intel FCBGA1023
socket

https://review.coreboot.org/#/c/22210/ : mainboard/compulab_ltd support

Thanks,
Hal
