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.

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.

Move this code to a generic location so that we can test it with sandbox.
This requires adding a few new fields to acpi_ctx, so drop the local
variables used in the original code.
Also use mapmem to avoid pointer-to-address casts which don't work on
sandbox.

A device may want to write out ACPI tables to describe itself to Linux.
Add a method to permit this.

The ASL compiler cannot handle C structures and the like so needs some
sort of header guard around these.
We already have an __ASSEMBLY__ #define but it seems best to create a new
one for ACPI since the rules may be different.
Add the check to a few files that ACPI always includes.

ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is a standard for
specifying information about a platform. It is a little like device
tree but the bindings are part of the specification and it supports an
interpreted bytecode language.
Driver model does not use ACPI for U-Boot's configuration, but it is
convenient to have it support generation of ACPI tables for passing to
Linux, etc.
As a starting point, add an optional set of ACPI operations to each
device. Initially only a single operation is available, to obtain the
ACPI name for the device. More operations are added later.
Enable ACPI for sandbox to ensure build coverage and so that we can add
tests.
