Introduce common Kconfig symbol for riscv architecture. This symbol SPL_LOAD_FIT_OPENSBI_OS_BOOT is like falcon mode on ARM, the Falcon boot is a shortcut boot method for SD/eMMC targets. It skips the loading the RAM version U-Boot. Instead, it will loads the FIT image and boots directly to Linux.
When SPL_OPENSBI_OS_BOOT is enabled, linux.itb is created after compilation instead of the default u-boot.itb. It initialises memory with the U-Boot SPL at the first stage, just as a normal boot process does at the beginning. Instead of jumping to the U-Boot proper from OpenSBI before booting the Linux kernel, the RISC-V falcon mode process jumps directly to the Linux kernel to gain shorter booting time.
When SPL_OPENSBI_OS_BOOT is enabled, it will change the default FIT configure file "binman.dtsi" to "binman_linux.dtsi" Default is not enabled.
