rpi3 is based on cortex-a53 implementation which is armv8+crc+simd
now that OE-Core has the appropriate tunes, switch to using the new
tune file, bonus, is that chromium will be more optimized now

Raspberry Pi hardware requires firmware that supersedes or is not
present in the standard linux-firmware distribution. These files are
maintained in the RPi-Distro project on github.
Several attempts have been made to reconcile conflicts between what's in
linux-firmware and what the hardware needs. The existing approach is
functional but not maintainable since it combines material from three
repositories into a single package that claims to be linux-firmware.
Remove the appends that change the content of linux-firmware for rpi
hardware. Add two new recipes that follow the RPi-Distro repositories:
* firmware-nonfree which forked from linux-firmware and replaces
content is provided as linux-firmware-rpidistro;
* bluez-firmware which forked from (very old) bluez and adds content is
provided as bluez-firmware-rpidistro.
The packages are named to make clear that these come from RPi-Distro,
rather than generic sources. Licensing attempts to record the state of
licensing as documented in RPi-Distro.

The attempt to Raspbian updated firmware blobs in packages separate from
linux-firmware introduced unresolvable conflicts with the standard
linux-firmware roll-up package. Revert to using an augmented
linux-firmware recipe that overrides and adds firmware from two Raspbian
repositories that have up-to-date images.

We can't just override KERNEL_IMAGETYPE in machine-specific conf files without
breaking the implementation of RPI_USE_U_BOOT. Instead we need to define a new
KERNEL_IMAGETYPE_DIRECT variable which will control the value when u-boot is not
in use. This new variable may then be overridden as needed without breaking our
u-boot support.

Fixes: 50fd319205 for raspberrypi3-64.
Fixes: #153
For raspberrypi3-64 set default kernel image to "Image".
"zImage" are not supported by arm64 platforms. And ".gz" images are not
handled by bootloader yet.

For raspberrypi3-64 we need to use the Image or Image.gz format with u-boot
instead of the legacy uImage format. We also need to issue the 'booti' command
to boot the kernel instead of 'bootm'.
