Bug description:
  [Impact]

  The ubuntu installer does not work via serial ports for Renesas boards like
  RZ/G2M-HiHope 
(https://www.renesas.com/us/en/products/microcontrollers-microprocessors/rz-mpus/rzg2m-hihope-rzg2m-reference-board,
 RZ/G2L, RZ/G2LC, RZ/G2UL SMARC Board 
(https://renesas.info/wiki/RZ-G/RZ-G2L_SMARC).

  The installation can be done using HDMI ports, but it would be nice to
  support installation via serial port as well.

  [Test case]

  Try to install Ubuntu on a Renesas board.

  [Fix]

  Statically build SuperH SCI(F) serial port support (with
  earlyconsole).
