- We now install splitted ucode(s) into the correct directory.
- Fixed an issue when emerge failed when no microcode was selected.
- "minimal" USE flag was renamed to "hostonly" and disabled per
default to avoid confusion.
- Additional sanity checks were added to show a warning if no
microcode update was installed (can be the case when user
set "hostonly" USE flag or uses MICROCODE_SIGNATURES environment
variable).

Due to previous change (commit eb9036f6f998c91c6bc021f73bc10ca1b5240ae7),
this package can become very large (or the resulting initramfs).
While the already introduced environment variable "MICROCODE_SIGNATURES" is
allowing you to set iucode_tool's "--scan-system" parameter to only
install ucode(s) supported by the currently available (=online) processor(s),
this doesn't work for binary package user(s).
The now added "minimal" USE flag (enabled by default) will set "--scan-system"
parameter for you. This will still allow you to select/blacklist ucode(s)
for all your hosts on your central build host using the "MICROCODE_SIGNATURES"
variable like before while giving each host the opportunity to only install
really supported ucode(s) which will reduces the file size of the resulting
initramfs.

Ebuild changes:
===============
- Based on Intel's microcode tarball from 2018-04-25.
- Added 210+ additional microcode updates (for production, no beta release!),
which are signed by Intel and publicly available but are not distributed
via Intel's microcode tarball for marketing/product phase out reasons.
You can prevent the usage of these microcode updates and stick with
content from Intel's official release tarball via new "vanilla"
USE flag.
- Blacklisted microcode 0x000604f1 aka 06-4f-01 aka CPUID 406F1 which
requires a newer microcode loader in kernel which is only available
in kernel >=4.14.34.
It is blacklisted because loading via older loader could crash the
system. A news item with instructions will follow.
