kbuild: improve Kbuild speed

Browse Source 
Kbuild brought about many advantages for us but a significant
performance regression was reported by Simon Glass.

After some discussions and analysis, it turned out
its main cause is in $(call cc-option,...).

Historically, U-Boot parses all config.mk
(arch/*/config.mk and board/*/config.mk)
every time descending into subdirectories.
That means cc-options are evaluated over and over again.

$(call cc-option,...) is useful but costly.
So we want to evaluate them only in ./Makefile
and spl/Makefile and export compiler flags.

This commit changes the build system as follows:

  - Modify scripts/Makefile.build to not include config.mk
    Instead, add $(PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS) to asflags-y, ccflags-y,
    cppflags-y.

  - Export many variables
    Going forward, Kbuild will not parse config.mk files
    when it descends into subdirectories.
    If we want to set variables in config.mk and use them
    in subdirectories, they must be exported.

    This is the list of variables to get exported:
      PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS
      CPUDIR
      BOARDDIR
      OBJCOPYFLAGS
      LDFLAGS
      LDFLAGS_FINAL
        (used in nand_spl/board/*/*/Makefile)
      CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
        (used in examples/standalone/Makefile)
      SYM_PREFIX
        (used in examples/standalone/Makefile)
      RELFLAGS
        (used in examples/standalone/Makefile)

  - Delete CPPFLAGS
    This variable has been replaced with PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS

  - Copy gcclibdir from example/standalone/Makefile
    to arch/sparc/config.mk
    The reference in CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR must be
    resolved before it is exported.
