Remove base-mb platform

Browse Source 
This base platform is no longer maintained.

For supporting the Microblaze CPU in the future, we might consider
integrating support for this architecture into base-hw. Currently
though, there does not seem to be any demand for it.

The current implementation can be compiled for 8 different kernels: Linux,
L4ka::Pistachio, L4/Fiasco, OKL4, NOVA, Fiasco.OC, Codezero, and a custom
kernel for the MicroBlaze architecture. Whereas the Linux version serves us as
development vehicle and enables us to rapidly develop the generic parts of the
system, the actual target platforms of the framework are microkernels. There
is no "perfect" microkernel - and neither should there be one. If a microkernel
pretended to be fit for all use cases, it wouldn't be "micro". Hence, all
microkernels differ in terms of their respective features, complexity, and
supported hardware architectures.

Genode allows the use of each of the kernels listed above with a rich set of
device drivers, protocol stacks, libraries, and applications in a uniform way.
