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.

It is often desirable to configure the spl-boot-order (i.e. the order
that SPL probes devices to find the FIT image containing a full U-Boot)
such that it contains 'the same device the SPL stage was booted from'
early on. To support this, we introduce the 'same-as-spl' specifier
for the spl-boot-order property.
This commit adds:
- documentation for the new board_spl_was_booted_from() function that
individual SoCs/boards should provide, if they can determine where
the SPL was booted from
- implements the new board_spl_was_booted_from() stub function
- adds support for handling the 'same-as-spl' specifier and calling
into the per-SoC/per-board support code.
This also updates the documentation for the 'u-boot,spl-boot-order'
property.

The RK3399 does not have any boot selection pins and the BootROM probes
the boot interfaces using the following boot-order:
1. SPI
2. eMMC (sdhci in DTS)
3. SD card (sdmmc in DTS)
4. USB loader
For ease of deployment, the SPL stage should mirror the boot order of
the ROM and use the same probing order (assuming that valid images can
be detected by SPL) unless instructed otherwise. The boot-order can
then be configured via the 'u-boot,spl-boot-order' property in the
chosen-node of the DTS.
While this approach is easily extensible to other boards, it is only
implemented for the RK3399 for now, as the large SRAM on the RK3399
makes this easy to fit the needed infrastructure into SPL and our
production setup already runs with DM, OF_CONTROL and BLK in SPL.
The new boot-order property is expected to be used in conjunction with
FIT images (and all legacy image formats disabled via Kconfig).
A boot-sequence with probing and fallthroughs from SPI via eMMC to SD
card (i.e. &spiflash, &sdhci, &sdmmc) has been validated on the RK3399-Q7.

Adding timer init function in timer-uclass driver to create and
initialize the timer device on platforms where u-boot,dm-pre-reloc
is not used. Since there will be multiple timer devices in the
system, adding a tick-timer node in chosen node to know which
timer device to be used as tick timer in u-boot.
