    linking: lay the groundwork for a unified linking approach
    
    Though coreboot started as x86 only, the current approach to x86
    linking is out of the norm with respect to other architectures.
    To start alleviating that the way ramstage is linked is partially
    unified. A new file, program.ld, was added to provide a common way
    to link stages by deferring to per-stage architectural overrides.
    The previous ramstage.ld is no longer required.
    
    Note that this change doesn't handle RELOCATABLE_RAMSTAGE
    because that is handled by rmodule.ld. Future convergence
    can be achieved, but for the time being that's being left out.
