spl: document 'chosen/u-boot, spl-boot-device'

To let the full U-Boot know where it was booted from (i.e. which of
the entries in /chosen/u-boot,spl-boot-order' contained a valid
image), we define (and document) /chosen/u-boot,spl-boot-device as the
property that could/should automatically be injected by SPL.

This commit only contains a documentation change, which documents the
new property and the intended usage.

u-boot,spl-boot-device property
-------------------------------
This property is a companion-property to the u-boot,spl-boot-order and
will be injected automatically by the SPL stage to notify a later stage
of where said later stage was booted from.
You should not define this property yourself in the device-tree, as it
may be overwritten without warning.
