There are ARM systems which are essentially heterogeneous multicores where
some cores implement a different ARM architecture version than other cores. A
specific example is the tegra124 which boots on an ARMv4 coprocessor while
most code, including most of the firmware, runs on the main ARMv7 core. To
support SOCs like this, the plan is to generalize the ARM architecture so that
all versions are available, and an SOC/CPU can then select what architecture
variant should be used for each component of the firmware; bootblock,
romstage, and ramstage.

ARM: Split out ARMv7 code and make it possible to have other arch versions.
We don't always want to use ARMv7 code when building for ARM, so we should
separate out the ARMv7 code so it can be excluded, and also make it possible
to include code for some other version of the architecture instead, all per
build component for cases where we need more than one architecture version
at a time.
The tegra124 bootblock will ultimately need to be ARMv4, but until we have
some ARMv4 code to switch over to we can leave it set to ARMv7.

Squashed two related patches for splitting ARM support into general
ARM support and ARMv7 specific pieces.

Tegra needs to use a custom bootblock implementation because it starts on a
coprocessor which uses ARMv4. It doesn't have the same control registers,
caches, etc., and the regular bootblock gets exceptions and dies.

The ARM Makefile was copied from x86 and then modified, and as a result it
was carrying a lot of baggage. On top of that, the extra complication made it
inflexible, and we need a lot of flexiblity in order to support the fact that
the Tegra124 starts on an ARMv4 coprocessor instead of one of the ARMv7 main
CPUs.

Remove arch-level Kconfig menu option as it shows all available architectures in
make menuconfig. Instead pull the bootblock options for choice and update image
to top-level Kconfig since it is already present for both x86 and arm.

Make all three coreboot stages (bootblock, romstage and ramstage) aware of the
architecture specific to that stage i.e. we will have CONFIG_ARCH variables for
each of the three stages. This allows us to have an SOC with any combination of
architectures and thus every stage can be made to run on a completely different
architecture independent of others. Thus, bootblock can have an x86 arch whereas
romstage and ramstage can have arm32 and arm64 arch respectively. These stage
specific CONFIG_ARCH_ variables enable us to select the proper set of toolchain
and compiler flags for every stage.
These options can be considered as either arch or modes eg: x86 running in
different modes or ARM having different arch types (v4, v7, v8). We have got rid
of the original CONFIG_ARCH option completely as every stage can have any
architecture of its own. Thus, almost all the components of coreboot are
identified as being part of one of the three stages (bootblock, romstage or
ramstage). The components which cannot be classified as such e.g. smm, rmodules
can have their own compiler toolset which is for now set to *_i386. Hence, all
special classes are treated in a similar way and the compiler toolset is defined
using create_class_compiler defined in Makefile.
In order to meet these requirements, changes have been made to CC, LD, OBJCOPY
and family to add CC_bootblock, CC_romstage, CC_ramstage and similarly others.
Additionally, CC_x86_32 and CC_armv7 handle all the special classes. All the
toolsets are defined using create_class_compiler.
Few additional macros have been introduced to identify the class to be used at
various points, e.g.: CC_$(class) derives the $(class) part from the name of
the stage being compiled.
We have also got rid of COREBOOT_COMPILER, COREBOOT_ASSEMBLER and COREBOOT_LINKER
as they do not make any sense for coreboot as a whole. All these attributes are
associated with each of the stages.

The options that keep track of whether there are arch versions of the standard
string functions shouldn't be in the arch/x86 directory since they apply to
all architectures. Move them into the higher level, shared Kconfig defaulting
to off. Then, in each applicable arch (currently all of them) they can be
selected to on.

There was a misuse of bool that would cause the dcache policy to not be
set up correctly, but instead present options "y" and "n" in the Kconfig
menu.
Also, TINY_BOOTBLOCK was removed a while ago, everything is
TINY_BOOTBLOCK now. Hence remove the option.
