Back in 2016, we discussed[1] rules for headers, and these were
generally liked:
1. Have a carefully curated header that's included everywhere first. We
got that already thanks to Peter: osdep.h.
2. Headers should normally include everything they need beyond osdep.h.
If exceptions are needed for some reason, they must be documented in
the header. If all that's needed from a header is typedefs, put
those into qemu/typedefs.h instead of including the header.
3. Cyclic inclusion is forbidden.
This patch gets include/ closer to obeying 2.
It's actually extracted from my "[RFC] Baby steps towards saner
headers" series[2], which demonstrates a possible path towards
checking 2 automatically. It passes the RFC test there.

Everything that is related to CHRP NVRAM should rather reside in
chrp_nvram.c / chrp_nvram.h instead of openbios_firmware_abi.h.

The "system partition" and "free space" partition layouts are
defined by the CHRP and LoPAPR specification, and used by
OpenBIOS and SLOF. We can re-use this code for other machines
that use OpenBIOS and SLOF, too. So let's make this code independent
from the MAC NVRAM environment and put it into two proper helper
functions.
