[U-Boot] [PATCH v2] serial: ns16550: Add register shift variable

This patch adds a new Kconfig variable that allows setting
the register offset shift value for the ns16550 driver to some
other value then 0 if not defined by the DT. All credit for this
patch goes to Lokesh Vutla as it was his idea.
The motivation for writing this patch originates in the
effort of synchronizing U-Boot DT to Linux DT for am33xx SOCs.
The current am33xx.dtsi file from U-Boot defines the <reg-shift>
property for all UART nodes. The actual (4.18+) am33xx.dtsi
file from Linux does not define <reg-shift> anymore. To prevent
(probably difficult) changes in many .dts and .dtsi files once
the synchronization is done, one can use this new variable. For
the pdu001 board, for example, SYS_NS16550_REG_SHIFT is set
to 2; no need to clutter U-Boot and board specific dts files
with <reg-shift> properties.

+ Use this to specify the amount of bits to shift device register

+ the device register offsets are 0x00, 0x04, 0x08, 0x0C and so forth

+ In case of AM33XX SoC the default value is 2, 0 otherwise. Note
+ that a <reg-shift> property defined in a UART node of the device
+ tree will always take precedence.
