This uclass is intended to provide a way to obtain information about a
U-Boot board. But the concept of a U-Boot 'board' is the whole system,
not just one circuit board, meaning that 'board' is something of a
misnomer for this uclass.
In addition, the name 'board' is a bit overused in U-Boot and we want to
use the same uclass to provide SMBIOS information.
The obvious name is 'system' but that is so vague as to be meaningless.
Use 'sysinfo' instead, since this uclass is aimed at providing information
on the system.
Rename everything accordingly.
Note: Due to the patch delta caused by the symbol renames, this patch
shows some renamed files as being deleted in one place and created in
another.

Useful to avoid #ifdef throughout the code that uses the board driver API.

This function will be used by the SPL to get the names of images to load
from the FIT. This allows to load different images based on runtime HW
detection.

Since there is no canonical "board device" that can be used in board
files, it is difficult to use DM function for board initialization in
these cases.
Hence, add a uclass that implements a simple "board device", which can
hold devices not suitable anywhere else in the device tree, and is also
able to read encoded information, e.g. hard-wired GPIOs on a GPIO
expander, read-only memory ICs, etc. that carry information about the
hardware.
The devices of this uclass expose methods to read generic data types
(integers, strings, booleans) to encode the information provided by the
hardware.
