The generic platform provides IPI and timer functionality based on
DT node provided in the FDT passed by previous booting stage. This
patch updates generic platform documentation about IPI and timer
expectations.

The generic platform will try to select serial console based on the
stdout-path DT property in /chosen DT node hence we document this.

The OpenSBI generic platform works perfectly fine on the QEMU spike
machine and Spike emulator so let's remove dedicated Spike platform
from OpenSBI.
All Spike platform related documentation in OpenSBI will now suggest
using OpenSBI generic platform.

We add generic FDT based platform support which provides platform
specific functionality based on the FDT passed by previous booting
stage.
By default, the generic FDT platform makes following assumptions:
1. platform FW_TEXT_START is 0x80000000
2. platform features are default
3. platform stack size is default
4. platform has no quirks or work-arounds
The above assumptions (except 1) can be overridden by adding special
platform callbacks which will be called based on the FDT root node
compatible string.
By default, we compile OpenSBI generic platform as follows:
$ make PLATFORM=generic
For a non-standard FW_TEXT_START, we can compile OpenSBI generic
platform as follows:
$ make PLATFORM=generic FW_TEXT_START=<non_standard_text_start>
