Provide armffa command showcasing the use of the U-Boot FF-A support
armffa is a command showcasing how to invoke FF-A operations.
This provides a guidance to the client developers on how to
call the FF-A bus interfaces. The command also allows to gather secure
partitions information and ping these partitions. The command is also
helpful in testing the communication with secure partitions.
For more details please refer to the command documentation [1].

Some devices have multiple partition types available on the same media.
It is sometimes useful to see these to check that everything is working
correctly.
Provide a way to manually set the partition-table type, avoiding the
auto-detection process.

Sometimes a previous bootloader has written ACPI tables. It is useful to
be able to find and list these. Add an 'acpi set' command to set the

Some Linux parameters can be set automatically by U-Boot, if it knows the
device being used. For example, since U-Boot knows the serial console
being used, it can add parameters for earlycon and console.
Add support for this.
Note that this is an experimental feature and we will see how useful it
turns out to be. It is very handy for ChromeOS, since otherwise it is very
difficult to manually determine the UART address or port number,
particularly in a script.
Provide an example of how this is used with ChromeOS.

Add a bootflow command to update the command line more easily. This allows
changing a particular parameter rather than editing a very long strings.
It is also easier to handle with scripting.

We use the terms 'distro' to mean extlinux but they are not really the
same. 'Distro' could refer to any method of booting a distribution,
whereas extlinux is a particular method.
Also we sometimes use syslinux, but it is better to use the same term in
all cases.
Rename distro to syslinux and also update bootstd uses of syslinux to use
extlinux instead.

The read and write commands are, deliberately, implemented in the same
file, so that they stay feature-compatible (e.g. if someone implements
support for "read the full partition, however large that is", that
same syntax should also work for write). In order to ensure the
documentation for both are similarly kept in sync, and to avoid
duplication, document them both in read.rst, and add a stub write.rst
referring to read.rst.
