Yasha Cherikovsky 37f4565b8b coreinfo: Rewrite bootlog_module ...

The old bootlog_module implementation was completely broken:
- It assumed that the console buffer is located at address 0x90000,
  and of size 64K. It is not correct nowadays.
- It displayed the buffer in a very hacky way, the code was riddled with
  TODOs and FIXMEs. Scrolling had sometimes unexpected behavior.

The new implementation:
- Uses the cbmem console as the source of data.
  It takes the console information from lib_sysinfo of libpayload, which is
  constructed from the coreboot tables (no more hardcoded adressess).
- Properly sanitizes the console buffer for display, which makes
  scolling and display much easier to implement.
