[U-Boot] [RFC PATCH] SPL: replace ctype implementation with tiny version

The ctype implementation (isdigit() & friends) works with an array of
256 Bytes - one for each character. This is pretty big in SPL terms,
so let's replace this "bloated" implementation with a tiny version
using C statements. This only implements the functions that the SPL
requires and confines this change only to an actual SPL build.
Saves about 200 Bytes from the SPL code size.

Hi,
some people voiced concerns about running out of SPL code space when
adding new features. In this particular case this was an issue when
looking at the SPL FIT extension series[1].
This patch here on top of this series saves more space than the SPL FIT
series consumed, so I trade this as a bait to people wrestling with this
problem ;-)
Cheers,
Andre.
