It should help to make clear that bios_linker works in terms
of offsets within a file. Also it should prevent mistakes
where user passes as arguments pointers to unrelated to file blobs.
While at it, considering that it's a ACPI checksum and
it's initial value must be 0, move checksum field zeroing
into bios_linker_loader_add_checksum() instead of doing it
at every call site manually before bios_linker_loader_add_checksum()
is called.
In addition add extra boundary checks.

cleanup bios_linker_loader_add_pointer() API by switching
arguments to taking offsets relative to corresponding files
instead of doing pointer arithmetic on behalf of user which
were confusing.
Also make offset inside of source file explicit in API
so that user won't have to manually set it in
destination file blob and while at it add additional
boundary checks.

bios_linker_loader_cleanup() is called only from one place
and returned value is immediately freed wich makes returning
pointer from bios_linker_loader_cleanup() useless.
Cleanup bios_linker_loader_cleanup() by freeing
data there so that caller won't have to free it.

'table' argument in bios_linker_add_foo() commands is
a data blob of one of files also passed to the same API.
So instead of passing blob in every API call, add and keep
file name association with related blob at bios_linker_loader_alloc()
time.
And find blob by name looking up allocated file entries
inside of bios_linker_add_foo() commands.
It will:
- make API less confusing,
- enforce calling bios_linker_loader_alloc() before
calling any bios_linker_add_foo()
- make sure that blob is the correct one, i.e.
associated with the right file name

Patch just changes type of of linker variables to
a structure, there aren't any functional changes.
Converting linker to a structure will allow to extend
it functionality in follow up patch adding sanity blob
checks.

'make check' fails with:
ERROR:tests/bios-tables-test.c:493:load_expected_aml:
assertion failed: (g_file_test(aml_file, G_FILE_TEST_EXISTS))
since commit:
caf50c7166
tests: pc: acpi: drop not needed 'expected SSDT' blobs
Assert happens because qemu-system-x86_64 generates
SSDT table and test looks for a corresponding expected
table to compare with.
However there is no expected SSDT blob anymore, since
QEMU souldn't generate one. As it happens BIOS is not
able to read ACPI tables from QEMU and fallbacks to
embeded legacy ACPI codepath, which generates SSDT.
That happens due to wrongly sized endiannes conversion
which makes
uint8_t BiosLinkerLoaderEntry.alloc.zone
end up with 0 due to truncation of 32 bit integer
which on host is 1 or 2.
Fix it by dropping invalid cpu_to_le32() as uint8_t
doesn't require any conversion.

While guest/host ABI is documented in hw/acpi/bios-linker-loader.c,
the API was left undocumented.
This adds documentation for all API functions.
Additionally, input is validated to make sure all
pointers fall within range of provided files.
To allow this validation for checksum commands,
bios_linker_loader_add_checksum is changed to accept GArray * in place
of void *.

There are plans to use bios linker by MIPS, ARM.
It's only used by ACPI ATM, so put it in hw/acpi
and make it depend on CONFIG_ACPI.
