Semihosting is a mechanism that enables code running on
a target to communicate and use the Input/Output
facilities on a host computer that is running a debugger.
This patchset adds support for semihosting in u-boot
for RISCV64 targets.

CHANGES since v4:
-	Check arch dependencies for SEMIHOSTING as well as SPL_SEMIHOSTING
	config options as per Sean's comment.
-	arch/riscv/lib/interrupts.c: Check for post and pre instructions
	of the ebreak statement whether they are as per the RISCV
	semihosting specification. Only then do a disable_semihosting
	and epc += 4 and return.
