Add support for VPL, a new phase of U-Boot. This runs after TPL. It is
responsible for selecting which SPL binary to run, based on a
verified-boot process.

This was implemented in order to get dual-slot bootloader
partitions on the BeagleBone Black, whose MLO boots from
the first bootable partition: MLO chainloads u-boot in the
same way.

Use the CONFIG macros to conditionally build the GPIO hogging support in
either the SPL or U-Boot, or both, depending on the configuration. Also
call the GPIO hog probe function in the common SPL board initialization
as an equivalent to adding it to the U-Boot init sequence functions.

A big part is the DM pinctrl driver, which allows us to get rid of quite
some custom pinmux code and make the whole port much more robust. Many
thanks to Samuel for that nice contribution! There are some more or less
cosmetic warnings about missing clocks right now, I will send the trivial
fixes for that later.
Another big chunk is the mkimage upgrade, which adds RISC-V and TOC0
(secure images) support. Both features are unused at the moment, but I
have an always-secure board that will use that once the DT lands in the
kernel.
On top of those big things we have some smaller fixes, improving the
I2C DM support, fixing some H6/H616 early clock setup and improving the
eMMC boot partition support.

The gitlab CI completed successfully, including the build test for all
161 sunxi boards. I also boot tested on a A64, A20, H3, H6, and F1C100
board. USB, SD card, eMMC, and Ethernet all work there (where applicable).

Platforms can overwrite the weak definition of spl_mmc_boot_mode() to
determine where to load U-Boot proper from.
For most of them this is a trivial decision based on Kconfig variables,
but it might be desirable the probe the actual device to answer this
question.

Pass the pointer to the mmc struct to that function, so implementations
can make use of that.

Compile-tested for all users changed.

<title>spl: Add semihosting boot method</title>

This adds a boot method for loading the next stage from the host. It is
mostly modeled off of spl_load_image_ext. I am not really sure why/how
spl_load_image_fat uses three different methods to load the image, but
the simple case seems to work OK for now.

To control the presence of this boot method, we add a config symbol.
While we're at it, we update the original semihosting config symbol.

I think semihosting has some advantages of other forms of JTAG boot.
Common other ways to boot from JTAG include:

- Implementing DDR initialization through JTAG (typically with dozens of
  lines of TCL) and then loading U-Boot. The DDR initialization
  typically uses hard-coded register writes, and is not easily adapted
  to different boards. BOOT_DEVICE_SMH allows booting with SPL,
  leveraging U-Boot's existing DDR initialization code. This is the
  method used by NXP's CodeWarrior IDE on Layerscape processors (see
  AN12270).
- Loading a bootloader into SDRAM, waiting for it to initialize DDR, and
  then loading U-Boot. This is tricky, because the debugger must stop the
  boot after the bootloader has completed its work. Trying to load
  U-Boot too early can cause failure to boot. This is the method used by
  Xilinx with its Zynq(MP) processors.
- Loading SPL with BOOT_DEVICE_RAM and breaking before SPL loads the
  image to load U-Boot at the appropriate place. This can be a bit
  tricky, because the load address is dependent on the header size. An
  elf with symbols must also be used in order to stop at the appropriate
  point. BOOT_DEVICE_SMH can be viewed as an extension of this process,
  where SPL automatically stops and tells the host where to place the
  image.
