[SeaBIOS] [PATCH 5/5] Document no new changes to pirtable.c, mptable.c, acpi.c, and smbios.c.

Add a note to the code that generates the pir, mptable, smbios, and
smbios tables that no new changes are expected.  Going forward, it is
expected that if any changes are needed to these bios tables that
SeaBIOS will get the tables passed in from upstream.
