[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 11/11] doc: update QEMU RISC-V documentation

[Lukas Auer]

The available defconfigs for RISC-V QEMU have changed. We now have
configurations to compile U-Boot to run in supervisor mode and for
U-Boot SPL. Update the QEMU RISC-V documentation to reflect these
changes.

+Running U-Boot SPL
+------------------
+In the default SPL configuration, U-Boot SPL starts in machine mode. U-Boot
+proper and OpenSBI (FW_DYNAMIC firmware) are bundled as FIT image and made
+available to U-Boot SPL. Both are then loaded by U-Boot SPL and the location
+of U-Boot proper is passed to OpenSBI. After initialization, U-Boot proper is
+started in supervisor mode by OpenSBI.
+
+OpenSBI must be compiled before compiling U-Boot. Clone the OpenSBI repository
+and run the following command.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    git clone https://github.com/riscv/opensbi.git
+    cd opensbi
+    make PLATFORM=qemu/virt
+
+See the OpenSBI documentation for full details:

+
+To make the FW_DYNAMIC binary (build/platform/qemu/virt/firmware/fw_dynamic.bin)
+available to U-Boot, either copy it into the U-Boot root directory or specify
+its location with the OPENSBI environment variable. Afterwards, compile U-Boot
+with the following commands.

+- For 32-bit RISC-V::

+- For 64-bit RISC-V::
+
+    make qemu-riscv64_spl_defconfig

+The minimal QEMU commands to run U-Boot SPL in both 32-bit and 64-bit
