SYS_ARCH_TIMER guards the usage of the ARM Generic Timer (aka arch
timer) in U-Boot.
At the moment it is mandatory for ARMv8 and used by a few ARMv7 boards.
Add a proper Kconfig symbol to express this dependency properly,
allowing certain board configuration to later disable arch timer in case
there are any problems with it.

After commit 46fc679ede ("arm: timer: get frequency for arch timer
armv7 in cp15 cntfrq") the ARM architected timer driver knows how to
determine the timer frequency at runtime by reading the CNTFRQ register,
so we don't need to hardcode the timer frequency anymore.

CONFIG_SYS_CBSIZE determines the maximum length of the kernel command
line, and the default value of 256 is too small for booting some Linux
images in the wild.

With the contents of config_distro_defaults.h migrated to Kconfig,
we can remove this header file completely

On the NIOS2 and Xtensa architectures, we do not have
CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE set. This is a strict migration of the current
values into the defconfig and removing them from the headers.
I did not attempt to add more default values in and for now will leave
that to maintainers.

We want to use Kconfig logic to depend on whether pl01x devices
are built in, so let's convert their inclusion selection to Kconfig.
This round goes to pl01x.

This symbol enables some library code used by various SATA drivers,
so make this a non-user-visible symbol select'ed by the respective
drivers, and let moveconfig handle the rest.

This board builds an U-Boot binary that is bootable with QEMU's 'virt'
machine on ARM. The minimal QEMU command line is:
qemu-system-arm -machine virt,highmem=off -bios u-boot.bin
(Note that the 'highmem=off' parameter to the 'virt' machine is required for
PCI to work in U-Boot.) This command line enables the following:
- u-boot.bin loaded and executing in the emulated flash at address 0x0
- A generated device tree blob placed at the start of RAM
- A freely configurable amount of RAM, described by the DTB
- A PL011 serial port, discoverable via the DTB
- An ARMv7 architected timer
- PSCI for rebooting the system
- A generic ECAM-based PCI host controller, discoverable via the DTB
Additionally, QEMU allows plugging a bunch of useful peripherals to the PCI bus.
The following ones are supported by both U-Boot and Linux:
- To add a Serial ATA disk via an Intel ICH9 AHCI controller, pass e.g.:
-drive if=none,file=disk.img,id=mydisk -device ich9-ahci,id=ahci -device ide-drive,drive=mydisk,bus=ahci.0
- To add an Intel E1000 network adapter, pass e.g.:
-net nic,model=e1000 -net user
- To add an EHCI-compliant USB host controller, pass e.g.:
-device usb-ehci,id=ehci
- To add a NVMe disk, pass e.g.:
-drive if=none,file=disk.img,id=mydisk -device nvme,drive=mydisk,serial=foo
