Add a new CONFIG_X86_64 option which will eventually cause U-Boot to be
built as a 64-bit application, with SPL doing the 16/32-bit init.

+	  U-Boot can be built as a 32-bit binary which runs in 32-bit mode
+	  even on 64-bit machines. In this case SPL is not used, and U-Boot
+	  runs directly from the reset vector (via 16-bit start-up).
+
+	  Alternatively it can be run as a 64-bit binary, thus requiring a
+	  64-bit machine. In this case SPL runs in 32-bit mode (via 16-bit
+	  start-up) then jumps to U-Boot in 64-bit mode.
+
+	  For now, 32-bit mode is recommended, as 64-bit is still
+	  experimental and is missing a lot of features.

+	  Build U-Boot as a 32-bit binary with no SPL. This is the currently
+	  supported normal setup. U-Boot will stay in 32-bit mode even on
+	  64-bit machines. When booting a 64-bit kernel, U-Boot will switch
+	  to 64-bit just before starting the kernel. Only the bottom 4GB of
+	  memory can be accessed through normal means, although
+	  arch_phys_memset() can be used for basic access to other memory.
