[PATCH v2 2/2] rockchip: rock-pi-4-rk3399: enable booting from SPI flash

Some variants of the ROCK Pi 4 series have an SPI flash chip populated
which can be booted from. This patch enables support in U-Boot for
building the image for the SPI flash, support for booting U-Boot from the
SPI flash chip and support in U-Boot for accessing the SPI flash using
`sf` commands.

Not all variants (e.g. ROCK Pi 4B, ROCK 4 Model C Plus, ROCK 4SE) come
populated with an SPI flash chip, but have the footprint on the board so
a user could solder their own to the board. With this patchset applied,
these board variants without an SPI flash chip still boot from MMC.

I have enabled support for both Winbond and XTX SPI flash devices since
different hardware variants have different devices populated:

 - `rockpi4_v13_sch_20181112.pdf` contains a Winbond part `W25Q64FWZPIG`
 - `rockpi4_v14_sch_20210114.pdf` contains an XTX part `XT25F32BWOIGT`

The ROCK Pi 4 I have is marked as "ROCK PI 4 v1.48" and contains an SPI
flash chip from XTX:

    => sf probe
    SF: Detected xt25f32 with page size 256 Bytes, erase size 4 KiB, total 4 MiB

In the interest of supporting all board variants and not regressing
existing users who boot from MMC, I have enabled support for booting from
both SPI flash chip variants in the defconfig and left the environment
storage location as MMC to not break existing users who have the
environment stored on MMC.

Changes in v2:
- Rebase on top of rockchip/for-next.
- Sync configuration changes with savedefconfig.
- Remove GigaDevice SPI flash chip support (suggested by Kever Y).
- Re-enable CONFIG_SPL_FIT_SIGNATURE=y (fixed in rockchip/for-next, solves
  multiple problems mentioned in v1. Thanks Jonas!).
- Remove spl-boot-order from rk3399-rock-pi-4a-u-boot.dtsi (suggested by
  Jonas K).
- Enable CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_SFDP_SUPPORT=y (suggested by Jonas K).
