Board bringups are typically painful. however, over the years, folks
know of minimal debug tools that are pretty effective in helping debug
basic peripherals. Lets create a reusable packagegroup balancing the
tools from wisdom from various folks vs the size of the resultant
package.

We would like to base such a system on more simplistic sysvinit (no
offence systemd, you are still our fav), as it has a much smaller
footprint.

The board startup is best done with a minimal u-boot and kernel device
tree configurations.

Dependency (for patch #12, depends on https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220314202840.18904-1-reatmon@ti.com/ )

Changes since V5:
* Patch #10 - switch from GPLv2 to MIT to stick with standard licensing.

Applied to dunfell-next.  I could not apply these patches to master as 
master has already started moving towards Kirkstone and the various 
syntax changes that entails.  We will work on migrating the patches to 
master and have another patch series for that branch.
