Coffee is placed by default at the beginning of the flash memory, right
before the firmware. This avoids the memory gaps that there could be
before and after Coffee if it were placed after the firmware, because it
is unlikely that the end of the firmware is aligned with a flash page
boundary, and the CCA is not flash-page-aligned. Thanks to that, Coffee
is also always in the same flash area if its size remains unchanged,
even if the firmware changes, which makes it possible to keep the Coffee
files when reprogramming the firmware after a partial flash erase
command.
The default configuration of Coffee is set to use sensible values for a
typical usage on this SoC, i.e. for sensor data logging.
The default size of Coffee is set to 0 in order not to waste flash if
Coffee is unused.
COFFEE_CONF_CUSTOM_PORT can be defined to a header file to be used with
"#include" in order to override the default CC2538 port of Coffee. This
makes it possible to use Coffee with an external memory device rather
than with the internal flash memory, without having to alter the Contiki
files.

Depending on the linker script, the generated .bin file may start beyond
the beginning of the flash memory. However, no target address was passed
to cc2538-bsl.py by the upload make target, so it used the beginning of
the flash memory in all cases.
The load address of the lowest loadable output section is now passed to
cc2538-bsl.py. The start address of the .text output section or the
address of the _text symbol could have been used too, but this would not
have been compatible with all the possible custom linker scripts.

Define the available CC2538 devices and their features, and use them to
define the linker script memory regions. The .nrdata output section is
now always defined in order to trigger an error if it is used but no
memory is available for it. The CC2538 device used by Contiki is made a
configuration option, the CC2538SF53 device being the default.
This makes more sense than defining the flash memory address and size as
configuration options like previously, all the more not all values are
possible and all the features are linked by each device.
This change also makes it possible to:
- use the correct SRAM parameters for the CC2538NF11,
- know at build time if the AES, SHA, ECC and RSA hardware features are
available on the selected CC2538 device.

* The current version of the README points to a wrong URL
for the LUFA Virtual Serial driver.
* A driver is nowadays provided by TI with CC2538
Foundation Firmware
Thus, this pull updates the LUFA driver URL and also provides a
link to CC2538 Foundation Firmware
Document the URL of the older Sourcery G++ Lite 2008q3-66 arm-none-eabi
toolchain mentioned by README.md so that users can easily find it if
needed.

Instead of requiring all calls to `watchdog_start` to be
wrapped inside `#if WATCHDOG_CONF_ENABLE` guards, we control
things from within the WDT driver itself.
This commit also includes some minor documentation and
indentation cleanups
