[U-Boot] [PATCH v5 13/14] SECURE BOOT: Halt execution when secure boot fail

In case of fatal failure during secure boot execution (e.g. header not
found), it is needed that the execution stops. Earlier, we assert reset
request in case in case of failure. But if the RESET_REQ is not tied off
to HRESET, this allows the execution to continue.

This can either be taken care in bootscript (Execute esbc_halt command
in case of image verification process) or it can be taken care in Uboot
Code. In this commit, doing the latter via esbc_halt().
