Today, we have cases where we wish to build all of U-Boot in Thumb2 mode for
various reasons. We also have cases where we only build SPL in Thumb2 mode due
to size constraints and wish to build the rest of the system in ARM mode. So
in this migration we introduce a new symbol as well, SPL_SYS_THUMB_BUILD to
control if we build everything or just SPL (or in theory, just U-Boot) in
Thumb2 mode.

When building a Thumb-1-only target with CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD,
some files fail to build, most of the time because they include
mcr instructions, which only exist for Thumb-2.
This patch introduces a Kconfig option CONFIG_THUMB2 and uses
it to select between Thumb-2 and ARM mode for the aforementioned
files.

Resynchronize memcpy/memset with kernel 3.17 and build them in
Thumb2 mode (unified syntax). Those assembler files can be built
and linked in ARM mode too, however when calling them from Thumb2
built code, the stack got corrupted and the copy did not succeed
(the exact details have not been traced back). However, the Linux
kernel builds those files in Thumb2 mode. Hence U-Boot should
build them in Thumb2 mode too when CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD is set.
To build the files without warning, some assembler instructions
had to be replaced with their UAL compliant variant (thanks
Jeroen for this input).
To build the file in Thumb2 mode the implicit-it=always option need
to be set to generate Thumb2 compliant IT instructions where needed.
We add this option to the general AFLAGS when building for Thumb2.

Using optimized versions of memset and memcpy from linux brings a quite
noticeable speed (x2 or better) improvement for these two functions.
Here are some numbers for test done with jadecpu
