[PATCH 1/5] mtd: nand: introduce SPL_NAND_FRAMEWORK_CAPABLE Kconfig option

From: Dinesh Maniyam <dinesh.maniyam at altera.com>

The SPL NAND MTD framework requires working driver model support
and sufficient memory resources, which are not available on all
platforms.

Introduce a SPL_NAND_FRAMEWORK_CAPABLE Kconfig option to allow
platforms to explicitly advertise support for compiling the full
NAND/MTD framework into SPL.

This avoids accidental enablement of the SPL NAND framework on
platforms that cannot support it and provides a clear capability
boundary for platform maintainers.

+		Enable loading U-Boot from NAND in SPL using the full
+		NAND/MTD framework instead of the minimal SPL NAND loaders.
+		This provides bad-block aware reads and flexible offset
+		handling via the common NAND/MTD infrastructure.
+		Platforms enabling this option must also provide working
+		driver model support and sufficient SPL memory resources.
