it replaces error-prone pointer arithmetic for build_header() API,
with 2 calls to start and finish table creation,
which hides offsets magic from API user.

In x86/ACPI world, linux distros are using predictable
network interface naming since systemd v197. Which on
QEMU based VMs results into path based naming scheme,
that names network interfaces based on PCI topology.
With itm on has to plug NIC in exactly the same bus/slot,
which was used when disk image was first provisioned/configured
or one risks to loose network configuration due to NIC being
renamed to actually used topology.
That also restricts freedom to reshape PCI configuration of
VM without need to reconfigure used guest image.
systemd also offers "onboard" naming scheme which is
preferred over PCI slot/topology one, provided that
firmware implements:
"
PCI Firmware Specification 3.1
4.6.7. DSM for Naming a PCI or PCI Express Device Under
Operating Systems
"
that allows to assign user defined index to PCI device,
which systemd will use to name NIC. For example, using
-device e1000,acpi-index=100
guest will rename NIC to 'eno100', where 'eno' is default
prefix for "onboard" naming scheme. This doesn't require
any advance configuration on guest side to com in effect
at 'onboard' scheme takes priority over path based naming.
Hope is that 'acpi-index' it will be easier to consume by
management layer, compared to forcing specific PCI topology
and/or having several disk image templates for different
topologies and will help to simplify process of spawning
VM from the same template without need to reconfigure
guest NIC.
This patch adds, 'acpi-index'* property and wires up
a 32bit register on top of pci hotplug register block
to pass index value to AML code at runtime.
Following patch will add corresponding _DSM code and
wire it up to PCI devices described in ACPI.

Qemu's ACPI table generation sets the fields OEM ID and OEM table ID
to "BOCHS " and "BXPCxxxx" where "xxxx" is replaced by the ACPI
table name.
Some games like Red Dead Redemption 2 seem to check the ACPI OEM ID
and OEM table ID for the strings "BOCHS" and "BXPC" and if they are
found, the game crashes(this may be an intentional detection
mechanism to prevent playing the game in a virtualized environment).
This patch allows you to override these default values.
The feature can be used in this manner:
qemu -machine oem-id=ABCDEF,oem-table-id=GHIJKLMN
The oem-id string can be up to 6 bytes in size, and the
oem-table-id string can be up to 8 bytes in size. If the string are
smaller than their respective sizes they will be padded with space.
If either of these parameters is not set, the current default values
will be used for the one missing.
Note that the the OEM Table ID field will not be extended with the
name of the table, but will use either the default name or the user
provided one.
This does not affect the -acpitable option (for user-defined ACPI
tables), which has precedence over -machine option.

build_append_foo() API doesn't need explicit endianness conversions
which eliminates a source of errors and it makes build_mcfg() look like
declarative definition of MCFG table in ACPI spec, which makes it easy
to review.
