[PATCH v7] hw/i386/pc: add max combined fw size as machine configuration option

[erich.mcmillan]

From: Erich-McMillan <erich.mcmillan@hp.com>

At Hewlett Packard Inc. we have a need for increased fw size to enable testing of our custom fw.

Rebase v6 patch to d73c46e4

Signed-off-by: Erich McMillan <erich.mcmillan@hp.com>
