[U-Boot] [PATCH 08/12] cmd_sf: Add DOFR(Dual Output Fast Read) read instruction support

This patch provides a support to read a flash using 'dofr'
read instruction(rd_inst) for 'sf read' and 'sf update' commands.

'dofr' will effectively increases the data transfer rate
by up to two times, as compared to the afr(Array Fast Read).

Example:
read 0x2000 length bytes starting at offset 0x0 to memory at 0x10000
using dofr read instruction.
u-boot> sf read dofr 0x10000 0x0 0x2000

erase and write 0x2000 length bytes from memory at 0x10000 address to
flash offset at 0x0 using pp write instruction and dofr read instruction.
u-boot> sf update pp dofr 0x10000 0x0 0x2000
