7e148f2ed3 acpigen: Support writing a length
It is convenient to write a length value for preceding a block of data.
Of course the length is not known or is hard to calculate a priori. So add
a way to mark the start on a stack, so the length can be updated when
known.

61cc93396a acpi: Support generation of ACPI code
Add a new file to handle generating ACPI code programatically. This is
used when information must be dynamically added to the tables, e.g. the
SSDT.

Initial support is just for writing simple values. Also add a 'base' value
so that the table can be freed. This likely doesn't happen in normal code,
but is nice to do in tests.
