cc8be222d1 arc: Rename ARCangel4 board to nSIM
ARCangel was one of the main development boards back in the day but
now it's gone and replaced by other boards like ARC SDP.

But we also used to have simulation platform very similar to ARCangel4
in terms of CPU settings as well as basic IO like UART. Even though
ARCangel4 is long gone now we have a replacement for simulation which is
a plain or stand-alone nSIM and Free nSIM.

Note Free nSIM is available for download here:
https://www.synopsys.com/cgi-bin/dwarcnsim/req1.cgi

And while at it:
 * Finally switch hex numerical values in nsim.h to defines from
   include/linux/sizes.h
 * Add defconfigs with ARC HS38 cores
 * Recreated all defconfigs with savedefconfig

1f9ad44546 arc: add selection of endianess in Kconfig
This change allows to keep board description clean and minimalistic.
This is especially helpful if one board may house different CPUs with
different features.

It is applicable to both FPGA-based boards or those that have CPUs
mounted on interchnagable daughter-boards.

e20bcb046b board/synopsys: remove selection of CPU from the board
Both ARCangel4 and AXS10x are FPGA-based boards so they may have
different CPUs. For now we have only 1 option (ARC700) and we define
this as default in arch Kconfig.

461be2f96e kconfig: remove redundant "string" type in arch and board Kconfigs
Now the types of CONFIG_SYS_{ARCH, CPU, SOC, VENDOR, BOARD, CONFIG_NAME}
are specified in arch/Kconfig.

We can delete the ones in arch and board Kconfig files.

This commit can be easily reproduced by the following command:

find . -name Kconfig -a ! -path ./arch/Kconfig | xargs sed -i -e '
/config[[:space:]]SYS_\(ARCH\|CPU\|SOC\|\VENDOR\|BOARD\|CONFIG_NAME\)/ {
    N
    s/\n[[:space:]]*string//
}
'

dd84058d24 kconfig: add board Kconfig and defconfig files
This commit adds:
 - arch/${ARCH}/Kconfig
    provide a menu to select target boards
 - board/${VENDOR}/${BOARD}/Kconfig or board/${BOARD}/Kconfig
    set CONFIG macros to the appropriate values for each board
 - configs/${TARGET_BOARD}_defconfig
    default setting of each board

(This commit was automatically generated by a conversion script
based on boards.cfg)

In Linux Kernel, defconfig files are located under
arch/${ARCH}/configs/ directory.
It works in Linux Kernel since ARCH is always given from the
command line for cross compile.

But in U-Boot, ARCH is not given from the command line.
Which means we cannot know ARCH until the board configuration is done.
That is why all the "*_defconfig" files should be gathered into a
single directory ./configs/.
