This change allows to keep board description clean and minimalistic.
This is especially helpful if one board may house different CPUs with
different features.
It is applicable to both FPGA-based boards or those that have CPUs
mounted on interchnagable daughter-boards.

We have switched to Kconfig and the boards.cfg file is going to
be removed. We have to retrieve the board status and maintainers
information from it.
The MAINTAINERS format as in Linux Kernel would be nice
because we can crib the scripts/get_maintainer.pl script.
After some discussion, we chose to put a MAINTAINERS file under each
board directory, not the top-level one because we want to collect
relevant information for a board into a single place.
TODO:
Modify get_maintainer.pl to scan multiple MAINTAINERS files.
