26e85def4c pico-imx7d: Add instructions for booting in Falcon mode
Improve the README by adding instructions on how to boot using
Falcon mode, which allows the SPL to load the kernel directly,
without using U-Boot proper.

36adc9a06f pico-imx7d: README: Adjust the binary name after DM conversion
After the conversion to DM the U-Boot binary is called u-boot-dtb.imx,
so fix the README file accordingly.

00102ae520 pico-imx7d: README: Recommend the usage of a USB hub
Since commit 9e3c0174da ("pico-imx7d: Add LCD support") we started to
notice some hangs in U-Boot.

There is not an issue on such commit per se, but due to the LCD support
the current drawn is increased and this may cause issues when powering
pico-imx7d-pi from USB.

Some computers may be a bit strict with USB current draw and will
shut down their ports if the draw is too high.

The solution for that is to use an externally powered USB hub between the
board and the host computer.

Add such recommendation to the README file.

Our default config already has the secure mode supported, so the
manual step is not required anymore.

The DFU allows a more user friendly use as the details where the
bootloader is installed are abstracted.
