Up to now we depended on an exported variable to build u-boot.rom.
We should be able to specify it in the configuration file, too.
With this patch this becomes possible using the new Kconfig option
CONFIG_BUILD_ROM.
This option depends on CONFIG_X86 and is selected in
qemu-x86_defconfig and qemu-x86_64_defconfig.

v3
Rework the documentation. Simon suggested not to deprecate
the export variable.
v2
Enable CONFIG_BUILD_ROM for qemu-x86_64_defconfig
as suggested by Bin.
Fix typos.
