x86: Generate a valid ACPI table

Implement write_acpi_table() to create a minimal working ACPI table.
This includes writing FACS, XSDT, RSDP, FADT, MCFG, MADT, DSDT & SSDT
ACPI table entries.

Use a Kconfig option GENERATE_ACPI_TABLE to tell U-Boot whether we need
actually write the APCI table just like we did for PIRQ routing, MP table
and SFI tables. With ACPI table existence, linux kernel gets control of
power management, thermal management, configuration management and
monitoring in hardware.
