Kick out Multiboot 2 draft as a branch. Initially it is

We really should have them, but in practice we never had. This
ought not be considered a regression.
* docs/multiboot.texi: Misc editorial changes:
Avoid using `commercial' as a synonym for `non-free'
(see http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Commercial).
Make a clear distinction between kernels and Operating Systems
(Linux is a kernel, FreeBSD and NetBSD are Operating Systems, Mach
is a microkernel, VSTa is something in-between).
Use 64-bit types to describe 64-bit datum (instead of splitting in
two 32-bit fields). Little endianess assumption applies (as per
Terminology section).
Update status of GNU GRUB relative to version 2.
* docs/multiboot.h: Replace with include/multiboot.h from GRUB 2 Bazaar
trunk.
* docs/kernel.c (cmain): Update name references for new multiboot.h
header.
* docs/boot.S (ASM): Rename to ...
(ASM_FILE): ... this.
* docs/multiboot.h: Check for `ASM_FILE' instead of `ASM'.
* docs/multiboot.h (EXT_C, STACK_SIZE): Moved from here ...
* docs/boot.S (EXT_C, STACK_SIZE): ... to here.
Prevent generation of .note.gnu.build-id which drastically increases
memory requirements of example kernel.
* docs/Makefile.am (kernel_LDFLAGS): Add '-Wl,--build-id=none'.
Remove everything not related to Multiboot. A huge number of files
was removed (too many to list them here). The following files were
modified:
* AUTHORS: Remove GRUB-specific bits.
* Makefile.am: Likewise.
* THANKS: Likewise.
* autogen.sh: Likewise.
* configure.ac: Likewise.
* docs/Makefile.am: Likewise.
Based on patch from Ville Skyttä <ville.skytta@iki.fi>
* docs/multiboot.texi: Fix some spelling.
* docs/internals.texi: Likewise.
* docs/grub.texi: Likewise.
