This patch adds the initial support for Intel Galileo Platform. It
contains the minimum set of code required to boot a dummy Contiki
image.
For Galileo initial support, we implemented a linker script, a minimal
bootstrap code, a set of stubbed functions required by newlib, and a
very simple main() function. Moreover, we also define some header files
and macros required by Contiki.
To build applications for this platform you should first build newlib
(in case it wasn't already built). To build newlib you can run the
following command:
$ platform/galileo/bsp/libc/build_newlib.sh
Once newlib is built, you can build applications. To build applications
for Galileo platform you should set TARGET variable to 'galileo'. For
instance, building the hello-world application should look like this:
$ cd examples/hello-world/ && make TARGET=galileo
This will generate the 'hello-world.galileo' file which is a multiboot-
compliant [1] ELF image. This image can be booted by any multiboot-
complaint bootloader such as Grub.
Finally, this patch should be used as a guideline to add the initial
support for others platforms based on x86 SoCs.

This patch creates the platform/galileo/bsp directory. This directory
contain all files related to Galileo's Board Support Package (BSP). For
now, the BSP consists of libc and bootloader.
Within the BSP directory, we have the scripts build_newlib.sh and build_
grub.sh. These scripts provide an easy and quick way to build the newlib
and the grub for the Galileo platform.
This commit simplifies the regression test for the doxygen build to
allow only 0 warnings.
Clean doxygen.runlog and doxygen.runerr for clean target
and ignore them in .gitignore.
The .2mg image format contains a header which is missing from our file. So our file is rather a .po image.
I opted to not add the .2mg header as it is only necessary if the metadata it contains differs from the values "guessed" when using the "naked" .po image format. On the other hand there are image file consumers not understanding the .2mg image format.
