Lukasz Tekieli 6dfeb165ee board/visionfive2: enable u-boot
Enables U-Boot and required OpenSBI builds for the VisionFive2. Changes
the sdcard.img to use GPT and adds the SPL and U-Boot to partitions
specified in U-Boot's documentation for the board:

https://docs.u-boot.org/en/v2024.01/board/starfive/visionfive2.html

U-Boot config uses BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_FORMAT_CUSTOM_NAME with value
"u-boot.itb". Using BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_FORMAT_ITB fails, because the
build does not support u-boot.itb make target.

Starfive VisionFive2
====================
The VisionFive2 is a low-cost RISC-V 64-bit based platform, powered by a
Starfive JH7110 processor.
https://doc-en.rvspace.org/Doc_Center/visionfive_2.html
How to build
============
$ make visionfive2_defconfig
$ make
How to write the SD card
========================
Once the build process is finished you will have an image called "sdcard.img"
in the output/images/ directory.
Copy the bootable "sdcard.img" onto an SD card with "dd":
$ sudo dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX
Preparing the board
===================
Connect a TTL UART cable to pin 6 (GND), 8 (TX) and 10 (RX).
Change the boot mode pins to SD card booting (RGPIO_0=1, GRPIO_1=0):
https://doc-en.rvspace.org/VisionFive2/Quick_Start_Guide/VisionFive2_SDK_QSG/boot_mode_settings.html
Insert your SD card.
Power-up the board using an USB-C cable.
