LDR format files are used primarily by Analog Devices processors but may be of interest to other vendors. Previously support existed for this format as part of the U-Boot build, but it has been unmaintained and unused for a long time. In preparation for adding support for modern ADI processors that use LDR, modernize the LDR support:
- Introduce CONFIG_LDR_CPU as the CPU string recognized by the LDR tool may not be the same as CONFIG_CPU - Add an SPL target that repackages u-boot-spl inside an LDR file
An almost identical target for packaging u-boot into an LDR file already exists and did not need to be updated
