[ Upstream commit 6c40624930c58529185a257380442547580ed837 ]
The Data Capture and Compare(DCC) is a debugging tool that uses the bootconfig
for configuring the register values during boot-time. Increase the max nodes
supported by bootconfig to cater to the requirements of the Data Capture and
Compare Driver.

Align the bootconfig applied initrd image size to 4. To fill the gap,
the bootconfig command uses null characters in between the bootconfig
data and the footer. This will expands the footer size but don't change
the checksum.
Thus the block image of the initrd file with bootconfig is as follows.
[initrd][bootconfig][(pad)][size][csum]["#BOOTCONFIG\n"]

Show line and column when we got a parse error in bootconfig tool.
Current lib/bootconfig shows the parse error with byte offset, but
that is not human readable.
This makes xbc_init() not showing error message itself but able to
pass the error message and position to caller, so that the caller
can decode it and show the error message with line number and columns.
With this patch, bootconfig tool shows an error with line:column as
below.
$ cat samples/bad-dotword.bconf
# do not start keyword with .
key {
.word = 1
}
$ ./bootconfig -a samples/bad-dotword.bconf initrd
Parse Error: Invalid keyword at 3:3

Add bootconfig magic word to the end of bootconfig on initrd
image for indicating explicitly the bootconfig is there.
Also tools/bootconfig treats wrong size or wrong checksum or
parse error as an error, because if there is a bootconfig magic
word, there must be a bootconfig.
The bootconfig magic word is "#BOOTCONFIG\n", 12 bytes word.
Thus the block image of the initrd file with bootconfig is
as follows.
[Initrd][bootconfig][size][csum][#BOOTCONFIG\n]

Extra Boot Config (XBC) allows admin to pass a tree-structured
boot configuration file when boot up the kernel. This extends
the kernel command line in an efficient way.
Boot config will contain some key-value commands, e.g.
key.word = value1
another.key.word = value2
It can fold same keys with braces, also you can write array
data. For example,
key {
word1 {
setting1 = data
setting2
}
word2.array = "val1", "val2"
}
User can access these key-value pair and tree structure via
SKC APIs.
