In latest patch the SDMA installation was limited to platforms whose
name was mentioned in the binary but this approach wasn't flexible to
manage cases like imx8m using imx7 sdma binary, so this patch does:
- change VPU/SDMA FW options to string to allow specifying the name
(suggested by Thomas)
- remove imx27 sdma case as non-existent
- add imx8m family support (using imx7d binary)
- get rid of FIRMWARE_IMX_PLATFORM_LOWER macro

Some SoCs need a HDMI FW for their bootloader, some other require
EPDC, SDMA and/or VPU.
Instead of trying to "guess" what firmware images need to be installed
in firmware-imx.mk, let the Config framework do the job and allow each
SoC to pick what firmware they need.
Note that this patch should also help introducing an eventual DP FW,
as Gary mentioned in a separate thread [1].

The DDR FW along with all other FW code that need to be used in
bootloader or installed on target are related to the firmware-imx
package.
This patch does this job as well as fixing the conjugation of NEED*s*
in the symbol name. Also take advantage of this patch to make the DDR
FW dependant on BR2_PACKAGE_FIRMWARE_IMX.
In addition, the BR2_PACKAGE_FIRMWARE_DDRFW_* option was incorrect, as
there is no package matching this name. So we rename them to
BR2_PACKAGE_FIRMWARE_IMX_*, and add the appropriate Config.in.legacy
handling.

Several i.MX8 (e.g.: 8M, 8MM, 8MN) support many DDR types (LPDDR4, DDR4,
etc.), for which the DDR training is performed in the bootloader.
Some boards have LPDDR4 (e.g.: nitrogen8mn) and some others have the DDR4
(e.g.: NXP's reference board EVK). This patch allows the selection of either
of the binaries used to train the DDR.
Note that DDR and HDMI FW copies are now separated, which makes latter
being properly copied only for the relevant SoC (i.MX8MQ).
