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.
