Update coreboot + merge GM45 hybrid GPU patches
Also add power_on_after_fail to X200 and others (prevents the bug where the system would boot when connecting the AC adapter) (option in menuconfig to use CMOS/nvram settings is now enabled) Also NetDCDC is now the default USB debug dongle used (compatible with the BBB rev C). Add two new methods for managing coreboot configs: ./build config corebootreplace ./build config corebootmodify

Libreboot is known to work on systems with only the Intel GPU, using native graphics initialization.
- On systems with switchable graphics, it is believed that the ATI chip is used by default; coreboot
- was tested with the native init and it didn't work, so the theory is that you have to disable
- the ATI chip and make it use the Intel GPU instead (with native graphics), using the same method
- as lenovobios. The other alternative is to implement native graphics initialization for the ATI chip
- used on some models, but this is much harder (disabling the ATI chip in favour of Intel is likely much easier).
- </p>
-
- <p>
- For now (unless you want to help make systems with switchable graphics work, where a display
- is initialized for the Intel GPU), you should avoid systems with switchable graphics.
+ On systems with switchable graphics, the Intel GPU is used and the ATI GPU is disabled, so
+ native graphics initialization works all the same.
