To reduce the large static array from kernel data, allocate
xbc_nodes array dynamically only if the kernel loads a
bootconfig.
Note that this also add dummy memblock.h for user-spacae
bootconfig tool.

Show the number of bootconfig nodes when applying new bootconfig to
initrd.
Since there are limitations of bootconfig not only in its filesize,
but also the number of nodes, the number should be shown when applying
so that user can get the feeling of scale of current bootconfig.

Add more error messages for following cases.
- Exceeding max number of nodes
- Config tree data is empty (e.g. comment only)
- Config data is empty or exceeding max size
- bootconfig is already initialized

Extra Boot Config (XBC) allows admin to pass a tree-structured
boot configuration file when boot up the kernel. This extends
the kernel command line in an efficient way.
Boot config will contain some key-value commands, e.g.
key.word = value1
another.key.word = value2
It can fold same keys with braces, also you can write array
data. For example,
key {
word1 {
setting1 = data
setting2
}
word2.array = "val1", "val2"
}
User can access these key-value pair and tree structure via
SKC APIs.
