[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 2/6] spl: arm: implement SPL_CLEAR_BSS_F

This implements the new option to clear BSS early in SPL for standard arm
and arm64 crt0.

BSS is cleared before calling board_init_f() and thus not cleared before
calling board_init_r() as it is not relocated in SPL.

Changes in v2:
- add CONFIG_SPL_CLEAR_BSS_F implementation for arm64 also
