Picolibc requires __iob array for its IO functions
This commit creates such array with dummy functions
using putchar/readchar from console.c
To prevent name conflicts printf and others were
removed from console.c
Also putchar had to be renamed to base_putchar
Right now it is still limited as it compiles only for one target,
but it should be possible to build BIOS with one command
Tested with digilent_arty.py
On slow configurations (ex iCEBreaker / SERV CPU / 12MHz SPI Flash freq) memspeed test was
too slow (>200s to do the random test for 1MB), so reduce test size to 4KB.
This will be less accurate but will still provide representative results which
is the aim of this test.
Integration from #1024 was working on some boards (ex Arty) but breaking others (ex iCEBreaker);
simplify things for now:
- Avoid duplication in spiflash_freq_init.
- Avoid passing useless SPIFLASH_LEGACY flag to software (software can detect it from csr.h).
- Only keep integration support for "legacy" PHY, others are not generic enough and can be passed with phy parameter.
litex_sim: SoC without RAM/SDRAM.
litex_sim --integrated-main-ram-size=0x1000: SoC with RAM of size 0x1000.
litex_sim --with-sdram: SoC with SDRAM.
litex_sim --integrated-main-ram-size=0x1000 --with-sdram: SoC with RAM (priority to RAM over SDRAM).
Inside the litex add_spi_flash function
we are detecting the devices that can't be used with
more efficient DDR version of litespi phy core
and we are choosing whether to instantiate the legacy or DDR core

This is because we pass -mcmodel=small. As the PowerPC ELF ABI
describes, the small code model restricts the relocations to 16-bit
offsets[1]. If we omit the option we get the default, which is the
medium model allowing 32-bit offsets.

New version of binutils contain stricter checks for sections that are
not included in the linker script, resulting in this error:
ld: error: no memory region specified for loadable section `.note.gnu.build-id'
Disable this feature as there is no use for it on bare metal systems.
