sb/amd/sb700: Add option to increase SPI speed to 33MHz
Some SB700-based systems and ROMs support high speed (33MHz) SPI access instead of the power-on default 16.5MHz. Add an option to enable high speed SPI access in the bootblock, and set the default value to Disabled. This greatly decreases boot time on SB700-based systems, especiall when a large payload is in use. On a KGPE-D16 with a Petitboot (Linux + initramfs) payload, the command prompt was accessible within 20 seconds of power on, which incidentally is faster than the proprietary BIOS on the same machine could even reach the GRUB bootloader.
