It is useful to be able to write the bootstage information to memory for
use by a later utility, or the Linux kernel. Provide a function to do
this as well as a function to read bootstage information back and incorporate
it into the current table.
This also makes it possible for U-Boot to chain to another U-Boot and pass
on its bootstage information.

Add an option, CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT to pass boot timings to the kernel
in the device tree, if available. To use this, you must have
CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT defined.

Sometimes we want to add up the amount of time spent in a particular
activity when it is happening in a number of discrete chunks.
Add bootstage_start() to mark the start of an acitivity and
bootstage_accum() to accumulate the time since the last start. Calling
these function in pairs results in the accumulated time being collected.

This function is not static, but not exported either. Add a prototype
in the header file and move the required enum to the header also.

The standalone example does not have get_timer() defined, so we cannot
rely on it being available.
Move the timer function into boootstage.c to avoid this problem.
This corrects a build breakage for the standalone example on some boards.

This defines the basics of a new boot time measurement feature. This allows
logging of very accurate time measurements as the boot proceeds, by using
an available microsecond counter.
To enable the feature, define CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE in your board config file.
Also available is CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT which will cause a report to be
printed just before handing off to the OS.
Most IDs are not named at this stage. For that I would first like to
renumber them all.
