9c07c513aa firmware: Remove FW_PAYLOAD_FDT_PATH compile-time option
The FW_PAYLOAD_FDT_PATH compile-time option is replaced by
FW_FDT_PATH compile-time option which is more flexible and
common across all OpenSBI firmwares.

This patch removes FW_PAYLOAD_FDT_PATH and updates related
documentation to use FW_FDT_PATH.

6ffe1bed09 firmware: Fix placement of .align directives
Move the .align directives after switching the section.  We want to align
the start of the current section, not the end of the previous section.
This also obsoletes the misguided workaround of disabling relaxation.

9beb57362f firmware: Improve comments for fw_prev_arg1() and fw_next_arg1()
The state of a0, a1, and a2 registers in fw_prev_arg1() and
fw_next_arg1() is same as passed by previous booting stage
so we add this info in comments for both these functions.

7a13beb213 firmware: Add preferred boot HART field in struct fw_dynamic_info
It has been reported that link address range of previous booting stage
(such as U-Boot SPL) can overlap the link address rage of FW_DYNAMIC.

This means self-relocation in FW_DYNAMIC can potentially corrupt
previous booting stage if any of the secondary HART enter FW_DYNAMIC
before primary HART.

To tackle this, we add preferred boot HART field (i.e boot_hart) in
struct fw_dyanmic_info. We use this field to force secondary HARTs
into relocation wait loop till preferred/primary boot HART enters
FW_DYNAMIC completes self-relocation. If preferred boot HART is not
available then we fall back to relocation lottery approach.

bae54f7645 firmware: Add fw_dynamic firmware
This patch provides first-cut implementation of fw_dynamic firmware.

As compared to fw_jump and fw_payload, the fw_dynamic obtains next
address, next mode and OpenSBI options from struct fw_dynamic_info.

The previous booting stage can create struct fw_dynamic_info in memory
and pass address of struct fw_dynamic_info in 'a2' register. Also, the
struct fw_dynamic_info has versioning as well so changes to the struct
fw_dynamic_info can be done in a backward compatible manner.
