soc/intel/cse: Add function to get cse_bp_info early
PSR data is created and stored in CSE data partition. In platforms that employ CSE Lite SKU firmware, a firmware downgrade involves clearing of CSE data partition which results in PSR data being lost. The PSR data needs to be preserved across the firmware downgrade flow. CSE Lite SKU firmware supports command to backup PSR data, and this command can be sent only in post-RAM stages. So the cse_fw_sync actions needs to be moved to ramstage. Sending cse_get_bp_info command in ramstage takes additional boot time of ~45-55ms on rex. To avoid the boot time penalty, this patch provides an API to get the cse_bp_info in early romstage. The response data is then migrated to cbmem once memory is initialized. The same data in cbmem can be utilized in ramstage to perform other cse_fw_sync actions. This patch also adds check to validate cse_bp_info in cbmem and avoids sending the command again if the data is valid. BUG=b:273207144 TEST=Verify the command works in early romstage, data is migrated to cbmem and valid data is available in ramstage on rex.
