Completely untested code follows.  Machine type compatibility code 
should not be necessary because new QEMU always starts with a new BIOS.

Not sure I'll have much time for this in the next few days, so help
is appreciated.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] seabios: build RSDT from XSDT

Old operating systems would like to have a v1 FADT, but new
operating systems would like to have v3.

Since old operating systems do not know about XSDTs, the
solution is to point the RSDT to a v1 FADT and the XSDT to a
v3 FADT.

But, OVMF is not able to do that and barfs when it sees the
second FADT---plus really it's only BIOS operating systems
such as win2k that complain.  So instead: 1) make QEMU provide
an XSDT only; 2) build the RSDT and v1 FADT in SeaBIOS.

This patch makes SeaBIOS build an RSDT out of an existing XSDT.
