imx: imx-common: introduce boot auxiliary core


To boot a auxiliary core in asymmetric multicore system, introduce the
new command "bootaux" to do it. Example of boot auxliary core from
0x70000000 where stores the boot head information that should be
parsed by auxiliary core, "bootaux 0x70000000".
Introduce Kconfig option IMX_BOOTAUX.

* To i.MX6SX and i.MX7D, the image supported by bootaux needs

*
* Per the cortex-M reference manual, the reset vector of M4 needs
* to exist at 0x0 (TCMUL). The PC and SP are the first two addresses
* of that vector. So to boot M4, the A core must build the M4's reset
* vector with getting the PC and SP from image and filling them to
* TCMUL. When M4 is kicked, it will load the PC and SP by itself.
* The TCMUL is mapped to (M4_BOOTROM_BASE_ADDR) at A core side for
* accessing the M4 TCMUL.
