[U-Boot] [PATCH v3 1/3] riscv: Add kconfig option to run u-boot in S-mode

This patch adds kconfig option RISCV_SMODE to run u-boot in
S-mode. When this opition is enabled we use s<xyz> CSRs instead
of m<xyz> CSRs.

It is important to note that there is no equivalent S-mode CSR
for misa and mhartid CSRs so we expect M-mode runtime firmware
(BBL or equivalent) to emulate misa and mhartid CSR read.

In-future, we will have more patches to avoid accessing misa and
mhartid CSRs from S-mode.
