Recent changes to the PowerPC zImage wrapper broke zImage.coff due to
the addition of new ELF sections that aren't very well converted to
xcoff and not supported by old OpenFirmware. This fixes it by putting
those sections in the xcoff .data.

This puts the knowledge of how to create various sorts of zImage
wrappers into a script called "wrapper" that could be used outside of
the kernel tree. This changes arch/powerpc/boot so it first builds
the files that the wrapper script needs, then runs it to create
whatever flavours of zImage are required.
This version does uImages as well. The zImage names are changed
slightly; zImage.pseries is the one with the PT_NOTE program header
entry added, and zImage.pmac is the one without. If the
zImage.pseries gets made, it will also get hardlinked to zImage;
otherwise, if zImage.pmac is made, it gets hardlinked to zImage.

This adds code to build zImage.coff and/or zImage.initrd.coff when
CONFIG_PPC32 and CONFIG_PPC_PMAC are defined. It also restructures
the OF client code and adds some workarounds for OF quirks on the
older machines.

This also extends the code to handle 32-bit ELF vmlinux files as well
as 64-bit ones. This is sufficient for booting on new-world 32-bit
powermacs (i.e. all recent machines).

To prove that the relocation works, move the crt0.o away from the beginning.
Move linker options from command line into linker script. rename entry point
because '_start' is referenced in printf output.

Make the zImage relocateable. So yaboot could just load and run any ELF
binary, without worrying about its load address.

Remove userland related stuff from ld.script, they are not required for zImage
use wildcards for some sections.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
