Introduce "aspeed_load_vbootrom()" to support loading a virtual boot ROM image
into the vbootrom memory region, using the "-bios" command-line option.
Introduce a new "vbootrom" field in the AspeedMachineClass to indicate whether
a machine supports the virtual boot ROM region.
Set this field to true by default for the AST2700-A0 and AST2700-A1 EVB
machines.
