console: Implement pre-console buffer
Allow redirection of console output prior to console initialisation to a temporary buffer. To enable this functionality, the board (or arch) must define: - CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER - Enable pre-console buffer - CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR - Base address of pre-console buffer - CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ - Size of pre-console buffer (in bytes) The pre-console buffer will buffer the last CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ bytes Any earlier characters are silently dropped.

+- Pre-Console Buffer:
+ Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
+ initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
+ Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
+ buffer any console messages prior to the console being
+ initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
+ bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
+ a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
+ bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
+ earlier bytes are discarded.

+ 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
