It's completely unnecessary, and I forsee this
check breaking the build system at some point,
since some commands rely on the output of other
commands. Therefore, I've removed this check.

fe_ returns an error on the find command, but we rely
on the only error ever being our intentional exit, upon
discovering files.
in singletree, the directory being checked was already
checked first, so we know it's safe not to err on find;
and find not reporting an error if no files are found is
ok.
on elfcheck, it's very much the same thing. In fact, we
very much want it to return 0 if the directory doesn't
exist, or if files don't exist within it.
Therefore, use fx_ which is designed for this use-case.
Quick re-cap: fx and fe execute a given function name with
each line outputting by find as an argument, each time. It
is somewhat similar in scope to find's -exec command.
We use fe_ as shorthand in several places all over lbmk.

Don't insert special files like GRUB keymaps after
copying to the final destination.
Instead, copy the tmprom to /tmp and operate on that,
in these instances.
This is less efficient, depending on the user's
configuration; if /tmp is on the same file system as
the user's xbmkpwd, it should be fine. However, the
actual performance hit isn't that bad in practise,
on most setups.
If the user's /tmp is a tmpfs, then that means using
tmpfs, but it's one image at a time. It should be OK.

"not seauboot" is a valid check at present, but if
i start supporting other arguments in the future,
this code would have to change.
therefore, i change it in advance, on that theory.
this new check is more technically correct. these
lines are triggered when inserting grub keymaps.

See, coreboot bug report:
https://ticket.coreboot.org/issues/590
We hadn't noticed this for quite a while, since we always
just booted with iomem=relaxed when needing to run cbmem,
since in practise it was always combined with other tasks
that require access to lower memory.
GRUB currently matches coreboot's own mmap for cbmem, but
for example SeaBIOS marks cbmem as E820 reserved. Therefore,
this change replicates the SeaBIOS behaviour.
Without this patch, Linux needs to boot with iomem=relaxed
for cbmem access, for example when running ./cbmem -1
With this patch, cbmem is now accessible regardless. This
patch also prevents Linux from overwriting parts of CBMEM.
Thanks go to Paul Menzel, who wrote this GRUB patch.
Thanks also go to Nicholas Chin, who provided testing, all
the way from Coreboot 25.03 back to Coreboot 4.20. It seems
that this is just something the payloads have to handle.
This means that both SeaBIOS and GRUB no longer have this
bug, in Libreboot; now what remains is to replicate the
test with our U-Boot payload.

Some parts of lbmk set +u +e, to be reset later on
under normal conditions upon exit. We must ensure
such level of integrity in err() as well.

Rely once again on err_, but still explicitly add an exit
just below, in case I made a mistake one day.
err() is essentially a trap that triggers in case I mess
up an error function, so that it doesn't reliably exit.
So, the idea is that everything calls err(), and err() is
almost never modified, or modified very carefully.
If error exits were ever broken, the result could be quite
unpredictable, so lbmk has very strict error handling, and
great care is taken to ensure that it does reliably exit.

make the command style more consistent, for example
relying on x_ inside a subshell to print the command
and arguments if a command failed.
this is a good style, and i'll probably use it in other
places on lbmk.

Don't directly call a variable. Call a function that
checks the variable instead.
The new err function also checks whether an exit was
actually done, and exits 1 if not.
If an exit was done by the given function, but the exit
was zero, this is also corrected to perform an exit 1.
This fixes a longstanding design flaw of lbmk.

Always certainly redundant, since if -u -e isn't
set, it'll continue to exit anyway.
However, we want to be pedantic about this, since
the safety of lbmk relies entirely on this function
NOT misbehaving.

it could be that some were left over before, for some
reason. that isn't currently the case, but this will
avoid the possibility in future.
therefore, this is a preemptive bug fix.
