[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 3/3] x86: qemu: Add graphics support

It turns out that QEMU x86 emulated graphic card has a built-in
option ROM which can be run perfectly with native mode by U-Boot.

Changes in v2:
- Drop the patch that tries to clean up the CONFIG_VGA_AS_SINGLE_DEVICE wraps
- Update README.x86 to mention QEMU version
