Document the StarLite Mk V port alongside the existing code PR.

  • Allow vendor coreboot repositories to provide common blobs and preserve per-device regions.
  • Add Star Labs without implying that Heads is preinstalled.
  • Add an unpublished StarLite external flashing guide for review.

The flashing guide writes only COREBOOT, preserving the descriptor, ME, EC, SMMSTORE and per-device data. It remains published: false until the code PR is merged and hardware-tested.

Related: linuxboot/heads#2164

Preserve per-device regions and make board-specific blob targets optional.
