[PATCH 1/2] Add mkelfimage and support for generating kernel+initrd ELF payloads to OpenEmbedded

[Raymond Danks <ray.danks@se-eng.com>]

On x86, and ELF image file may be stored as a coreboot payload.  This 
image file may be a kernel or a kernel+initrd.

Documentation on this has been started on the coreboot wiki:
http://www.coreboot.org/Mkelfimage

We have seen success using the mkelfimage utility to construct a 
kernel+initrd image using the micro-image OpenEmbedded image as an initrd.
http://www.se-eng.com/wiki/index.php/Open_Embedded_Setup

The first patch contains the meta files for the mkelfimage utility in 
OpenEmbedded.
