In order to allow booting TI K3 family SoCs via Y-Modem add support for
loading System Firmware by tapping into the associated SPL core loader
function.
In this context also make sure a console is available and if not go
ahead and activate the early console feature which allows bringing up
an alternate full console before the main console is activated. Such
an alternate console is typically setup in a way that the associated
UART can be fully initialized prior to SYSFW services being available.

A previous commit...
commit 2a51e16bd5 ("configs: Make USE_TINY_PRINTF depend on SPL||TPL and be default")
...causes the System Firmware version string during SPL boot to no longer
getting printed to the console as expected. To fix this issue rework the
handling of that string to only use basic printf() syntax rather than
for example disabling CONFIG_USE_TINY_PRINTF on affected devices, this
way maintaining most of the memory size benefit the initial patch brings
when it comes to SPL.

Introduce a framework that allows loading the System Firmware (SYSFW)
binary as well as the associated configuration data from an image tree
blob named "sysfw.itb" from an FS-based MMC boot media or from an MMC
RAW mode partition or sector.
To simplify the handling of and loading from the different boot media
we tap into the existing U-Boot SPL framework usually used for loading
U-Boot by building on an earlier commit that exposes some of that
functionality.
Note that this initial implementation only supports FS and RAW-based
eMMC/SD card boot.
