Some commands can get very unweildy if they have too many positional
arguments. Adding options makes them easier to read, remember, and
understand.
This implementation of getopt has been taken from barebox, which has had
option support for quite a while. I have made a few modifications to their
version, such as the removal of opterr in favor of a separate getopt_silent
function. In addition, I have moved all global variables into struct
getopt_context.
The getopt from barebox also re-orders the arguments passed to it so that
non-options are placed last. This allows users to specify options anywhere.
For example, `ls -l foo/ -R` would be re-ordered to `ls -l -R foo/` as
getopt parsed the options. However, this feature conflicts with the const
argv in cmd_tbl->cmd. This was originally added in 54841ab50c ("Make sure
that argv[] argument pointers are not modified."). The reason stated in
that commit is that hush requires argv to stay unmodified. Has this
situation changed? Barebox also uses hush, and does not have this problem.
Perhaps we could use their fix?
I have assigned maintenance of getopt to Simon Glass, as it is currently
only used by the log command. I would also be fine maintaining it.

This adds kerneldocs for <timer.h>.
I don't know who should maintain doc/api/timer.rst, since the timer
subsystem seems to be maintained by SoC maintainers. MAINTAINERS is left
un-updated for the moment.

This normalizes the documentation to conform to kernel-doc style [1]. It
also moves the documentation for pinctrl_ops inline, and adds argument and
return-value documentation. I have kept the usual function style for these
comments. I could not find any existing examples of function documentation
inside structs.

We currently have two implementations of UEFI variables:
* variables provided via an OP-TEE module
* variables stored in the U-Boot environment
Read only variables are up to now only implemented in the U-Boot
environment implementation.
Provide a common interface for both implementations that allows handling
read-only variables.
As variable access is limited to very few source files put variable
related definitions into new include efi_variable.h instead of efi_loader.
