Based loosely on the Linux kernel
Documentation/admin-guide/security-bugs.rst file, create a basic
security document for U-Boot. In sum, security issues should be

Import as-is much of the old "Patches" wiki page to the current
sending_patches.rst file. This means we need to move patman to being
included in the higher level ToC and add a reference for "Custodians" in
the process document. A very minimal amount of content changing and
rewording is done here as part of the import, in order to make the
conversion easier.

Start by describing in general the best practices for how to implement
configuration of some aspect of U-Boot. This generally means finding
the right choices for when something should be static or dynamically
configured and enabled. Then further document when to use CONFIG or CFG
namespaces for static configuration.

Migrate the RelaseCycle wiki page to Sphinx. In terms of visible
changes, we stop having a dynamic countdown to when the release is. And
we drop the year-based statistics, that were not being kept up to date.
For the moment, we only link to statistics for v2022.07 but will add
back the historical data in a subsequent patch.

At present the Python code in U-Boot is somewhat inconsistent, with some
files passing pylint quite cleanly and others not.
Add a way to track progress on this clean-up, by checking that no module
has got any worse as a result of changes.
This can be used with 'make pylint'.

This resyncs us with the version found in v5.13 of the Linux kernel with
the following exceptions:
- Keep our u-boot specific tests / code area.
- Change the location of checkpatch.rst (which we now import)
- Drop the "use strscpy" test as we don't have that, but do have strlcpy
and want that used now.
- Keep debug/printf in the list for $logFunctions
And note that we now also include the spdxcheck.py tool that
checkpatch.pl supports calling out to, and include upstream's
checkpatch.rst in our develop section of the documentation.

This tool has nothing to do with testing. It is for refactoring code
automatically using a 'semantic patch' tool.
Create a new section for 'refactoring' and move it into there. It is
likely that other topics may fall under the same heading, such as
using moveconfig and search/replace tools.
