firmware: coreboot: Add CFR firmware attributes driver

This commit adds a firmware-attributes driver for the coreboot CFR table
entry to describe firmware setup options. It exposes runtime EFI
variable-backed boolean, enum, and integer settings through sysfs.

[Severity: Medium]
Does this code leak the newly allocated value->label string?

When coreboot_cfr_string_is_valid_label() fails and returns -EINVAL,
setting->n_values has not been incremented yet. If the caller then cleans up
the error by calling coreboot_cfr_free_setting(), the cleanup loop:

static void coreboot_cfr_free_setting(struct coreboot_cfr_setting *setting)
{
	unsigned int i;

	for (i = 0; i < setting->n_values; i++)
		kfree(setting->values[i].label);
	...

will skip freeing the string that was just allocated because setting->n_values
does not include it yet. Should kfree() be called on value->label before
returning -EINVAL here?
