[U-Boot] [RFC PATCH] arm: Enable CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET/MEMCPY globally

- Move the obj- lines for memset.S/memcpy.S to outside of an SPL check
  so that SPL can use them as well.
- Make sure memset() / memcpy() end up in a text.fn section for garbage
  collection in SPL.
- Update examples/api/Makefile to get memset() again on ARM.
- Drop Y-MODEM SPL from am335x_evm and USB SPL so that it fits within
  size constraints again.
- Always set CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET/MEMCPY on ARM && !ARM64

Aside from needing to split at least the am335x_evm change out (it's
fine to do today, and unused in the usecase am335x_evm_usbspl is for),
the setting of MEMSET/MEMCPY should be done in Kconfig.  This will make
opting out easier if we need that long-term.  The problems today are:
- Lack of arm64 memset/memcpy (Exist in kernel, could be synced over)
- A thumb1? problem on platforms such as taurus that I hope would be
  resolved with a re-sync to the kernel again as there's some minor
  differences between our implementations.

If we're good with the notion of always switching over to the asm
versions of these functions (and keeping it selectable or not?) I can
address some of these problems and of course other feedback.
