[PATCH v3 00/20] x86: expo: Add support for editing coreboot CMOS RAM settings

U-Boot provides support for editing settings with an 'expo', as well as
reading and writing settings to CMOS RAM.

This series integrates expo functionality with coreboot, using the
sysinfo table to get a list of settings, creating an expo with them and
allowing them to be edited.

A new CI test provides coverage for some coreboot-related commands. For
this to work, a number of minor tweaks are made to existing tests, so
that they pass on coreboot (x86) or at least are skipped when they
cannot pass. Likely most of these fixes will apply to other boards too.

It includes several other fixes and improvements:
- new -m flag for 'bootflow scan' so it can display a menu automatically
- Fix for video-scrolling crash with Truetype
- menu items can now have individual integer values
- menu items are lined up according to the width of all menu labels

Changes in v3:
- Update Dockerfile instead

Changes in v2:
- Avoid using common.h
- Avoid using common.h
- Rebase to -next
