Newer versions of binutils mark '_end' as 'B' instead of 'A' for
whatever reason.

To be honest, the piggyback code doesn't actually care what kind
of symbol _start and _end are, it just wants to find them and
record the address.

So remove the type from the match strings.

Now that we use the same piggyback for 32 and 64 bit
we can drop the _32 suffix.
Include some trivial unification in the Makefile
now that 32 and 64 bit can share the same piggyback command.

piggyback_32 adapted to support sparc64:
- locating "HdrS" differs for sparc and sparc64
- sparc64 updates a_text, a_data + a_bss in the final a.out header

Updated Makefile to use piggyback_32 for sparc64.
Deleted the now unused piggyback_64.c

piggyback_32.c is host endian neutral and works on both
little-endian and big-endian hosts.
This fixes a long standing bug where sparc64 could not
generate tftpboot.img on a x86 host.

Add new option to piggyback that identify if this is
for 32 or 64 bit.
Use this information to determine the alignment used.

As we always convert to a.out there is no need to
support ELF.

Removing ELF support because:
- it is not used
- it simplifies code to support a.out only

I missed that the code was actually commented.

We use "_start" in 64 bit - do the same in 32 bit.
It is always good to be consistent.

Kjetil Oftedal mentioned that piggyback_32 was failing
when building a sparc image.

I tracked this down to the fact that the kernel no longer
provided an absolute symbol named "end".

Commit 86ed40bd ("sparc: unify sections.h")
renamed end to _end but failed to update piggyback_32.

Simple unification:
o renamed piggyback to *_32.c/*_64.c
o copied content of Makefile from sparc64 to sparc and guard it
o updated sparc/boot/.gitignore
o deleted remaining files in sparc64/boot

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
