[U-Boot] [PATCH V3 2/2] [NEXT] arm926ejs: reduce code size with -msingle-pic-base

[Albert Aribaud]

Add -msingle-pic-base to the relocation flags, and compute the pic base
in start.S twice and for all -- once before relocation to run board_init_f,
and once after relocation to run board_init_r and the rest of u-boot.
This further reduces code size by 2.5% compared to -fPIE alone.
