[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 2/2] cmd_sf: Add QIOFR(Quad IO Fast Read) read instruction support

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

'qiofr' is similar to the qofr(Quad Output Fast Read) except that it
improves performance throughput by allowing input of the
address bits using four bits per SCK via four input pins.

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

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