[PATCH v3 1/4] serial: ns16550: Support run-time configuration

Hi Simon,

Thanks for enabling this dynamic serial config. I have verified this with Slim Bootloader change(https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/list/?series=149214) on QEMU and APL platform, and it works well as expected.

> 
> At present this driver uses an assortment of CONFIG options to control how
> it accesses the hardware. This is painful for platforms that are supposed to be
> controlled by a device tree or a previous-stage bootloader.
> 
> Add a new CONFIG option to enable fully dynamic configuration. This
> controls register spacing, size, offset and endianness.

> Changes in v3:
> - Rewrite the conditional logic to a fix a bug and match serial_xx_shift()
> - Add a separate flag for whether to use endian-aware out() functions
> 
> Changes in v2:
> - runtime -> run-time
> - Enable run-time config for slimbootloader too
> - Improve Kconfig help based on Bin's comments
> - Use ns16550 in patch subject
