The current 'doing_global' refers to being in the state of processing
global bootmeths. Since global bootmeths are currently used once at the
start, it becomes false once the last global bootmeth has been used.
In preparation for allowing bootmeths to run at other points in the
bootstd interation, add a new 'have_global' flag which tracks whether
there are any global bootmeths in the method_order[] list. It is set up
when iteration starts. Unlike doing_global which resets back to false
after the global bootmeths have been handled, once have_global is set to
true, it remains true for the entire iteration process. This provides a
quick check as to whether global-bootmeth processing is needed.

There is no such thing as struct bootmeth, it's probably a typo. This
issue doesn't affect the execution as it's a pointer, and pointer sizes
are the same for all data types. But it can be confusing, so make it
struct udevice, as it should be.

Specifying efi_mgr in 'bootmeths' environment variable leads to NULL
pointer dereference when 'bootflow scan' is executed, with call trace
like this:
priv->fake_dev // NULL pointer dereference
.read_bootflow = efi_mgr_read_bootflow()
bootmeth_get_bootflow()
bootflow_check()
bootflow_scan_first()
do_bootflow_scan()
'bootflow scan -l'
That happens because in case when 'bootmeths' env var is defined the
bootmeth_efi_mgr driver is not probed, and the memory for its private
data isn't allocated by .priv_auto. In case when 'bootmeths' env var is
not defined, the std->bootmeth_count is 0, and the execution flow in
bootmeth_setup_iter_order() takes "no ordering" path, which in turn runs
uclass_get_device_by_seq() -> ... -> device_probe(), so issue isn't
present there. But when 'bootmeths' is defined and contains efi_mgr, the
std->bootmeth_count > 0, so bootmeth_setup_iter_order() follows the "we
have an ordering" path, where devices are not probed. In other words:
'bootmeths' defined 'bootmeths' not defined

We have previously added logic to allow a "fallback" option to be
specified in the extlinux configuration. Provide a command that allows
us to set this as the preferred default option when booting.
Combined with the bootcount functionality, this allows the "altbootcmd"
to provide a means of falling back to a previously known good state
after a failed update. For example, if "bootcmd" is set to:
bootflow scan -lb
We would set "altbootcmd" to:
bootmeth set extlinux fallback 1; bootflow scan -lb
Causing the boot process to boot from the fallback option.

Some bootflows (such as EFI and ChromiumOS) delay reading the kernel until
it is needed to boot. This saves time when scanning and avoids needing to
allocate memory for something that may never be used.
To permit reading of these files, add a new 'bootflow read' command.

This functionality current sits in bootstd, but it is more generally
useful. Add a function to load a file into memory, allocating it as

In a few cases the error handling is not quite right. Make sure we
return the actual error in distro_efi_read_bootflow_file() rather than
-EINVAL. Return -IO when a file cannot be read. Also show the error name
if available.
This does not change operation, but does make it easier to diagnose
problems.

Normally the bootmeth driver reads the bootflow from the bootdev, since
it knows the correct way to do it.
However it is easier for some bootdevs to handle this themselves. For
example, reading from SPI flash is quite different from other devices.
Add a way for the bootdev to pass a bootflow to the bootmeth, so that
this can be supported.

Typically we want to find and use global bootmeths first, since they have
the best idea of how the system should boot. We then use normal bootmeths
as a fallback.
Add the logic for this, putting global bootmeths at the end of the
ordering. We can then easily scan the global bootmeths first, then drop
them from the list for subsequent bootdev-centric scans.
This changes the ordering of global bootmeths, so update the
bootflow_system() accordingly.
Drop the comment from bootmeth_setup_iter_order() since this is an
exported function and it should be in the header file.

The current way of handling things like EFI bootmgr is a bit odd, since
that bootmeth handles selection of the bootdev itself. VBE needs to work
the same way, so we should support it properly.
Add a flag that indicates that the bootmeth is global, rather than being
invoked on each bootdev. Provide a helper to read a bootflow from the
bootmeth.

If the ordering produces no entries, this is an error. Report it, so that

A bootmeth is a method of locating an operating system. For now, just
add the uclass itself. Drivers for particular bootmeths are added later.
If no bootmeths devices are included in the devicetree, create them
automatically. This avoids the need for boilerplate in the devicetree
files.
