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.

25472de89e firmware: Allow firmwares to provide next mode and options
This patch extends existing firmwares (i.e. fw_jump and fw_payload)
to explicitly provide next mode and options to fw_base.

We also introduce fw_save_info() which is called by fw_base very
early on boot HART. This function can be used by existing firmwares
(i.e. fw_jump and fw_payload) to save information passed by previous
booting stage.

Overall, this is a preparatory patch for implementing fw_dynamic.

cfa3fba14f firmware: Rename fw_common.S to fw_base.S
The fw_common.S is the base firmware extendend by fw_jump and
fw_payload. This patch renames fw_common.S to fw_base.S to
have more clear/intutive name for base firmware.
