Dear Mike,

Add support for up to 35 boot menu entries (2 pages if >18). To solve the
">10" problem currently experienced by SeaBIOS users (there are no 11, 12, etc.
keys on a keyboard - so impossible to choose the last menu entries if you got
10 entries because of multiple hard drives / secondary payloads / floppies)
- the boot menu has been extended to the letter keys. NOTE: TPM menu has been
moved from T to M letter: it is at the end of keyboard's 3rd row of letters and
"Trusted" is adjective while "Module" is a noun; alternatively could press '-'.

Could you please rebase this. With Gerd’s commit 18d237b4 (bootmenu: add support for more than 9 entries), 34(?) entries are currently supported. (No idea, why 0 is left out for example.)

Also, add support for a numpad. Small USB numpad could be really convenient for
choosing the boot entries at coreboot boards used as (maybe headless) servers.
'/' char on numpad could be used to open the boot menu or to exit it. If there
are >10 boot menu entries - the numpad console interface will be enabled: press
one or two digit keys and then ENTER to confirm your choice, or remove a digit
by pressing the '.Del' key. Also you could call TPM with '-' key at any moment,
or boot with a single key press of your fullsize keyboard.

Could you split this out, and please send separately?

(patch body is after the testing instructions below)

It’d be great if you sent your patches with `git send-email`.

Kind regards,
