[PATCH v2 8/8] x86: fsp: Support a warning message when DRAM init is slow

With DDR4, Intel SOCs take quite a long time to init their memory. During
this time, if the user is watching, it looks like SPL has hung. Add a
message in this case.

This works by adding a return code to fspm_update_config() that indicates
whether MRC data was found and a new property to the device tree.

Also add one more debug message while starting.

Changes in v2:
- Use the three-argument CONFIG_IS_ENABLED() instead of IF_ENABLED_INT()
- Update binding to mention timing for coral and a 1GB APL board
- Drop patch 'kconfig: Add support for conditional values'
