RISC-V: Move spinwait booting method to its own config

The spinwait booting method should only be used for platforms with older
firmware without SBI HSM extension or M-mode firmware because spinwait
method can't support cpu hotplug, kexec or sparse hartid. It is better
to move the entire spinwait implementation to its own config which can
be disabled if required. It is enabled by default to maintain backward
compatibility and M-mode Linux.

This config allows kernel to use SBI v0.1 APIs. This will be
deprecated in future once legacy M-mode software are no longer in use.

This enables support for booting Linux via spinwait method. In the
spinwait method, all cores randomly jump to Linux. One of the cores
gets chosen via lottery and all other keep spinning on a percpu
variable. This method cannot support CPU hotplug and sparse hartid
scheme. It should be only enabled for M-mode Linux or platforms relying
on older firmware without SBI HSM extension. All other platforms should
rely on ordered booting via SBI HSM extension which gets chosen
dynamically at runtime if the firmware supports it.
