    CBMEM CONSOLE: Add config option for CBMEM stored console log.
    
    Some experiments have demonstrated that total amount of text
    generated by coreboot console when BIOS_SPEW level is enabled
    exceeds 40KB.
    
    Console output generated before DRAM is initialized can exceed
    2KB. This patch introduces the new configuration option and
    assigns adequate default values to cache based and DRAM based
    console buffers.

     . run the following commands in the root directory
    
       cp config.stumpy .config
       make menuconfig
    
     . enable the new option (Console->Send console output to a CBMEM buffer)
     . save the configuration
    
    Observe the following settings added to the config:
    +CONFIG_CONSOLE_CBMEM=y
