[PATCH] ARM: i.MX8M: limit PBL size to 0x3f000

On i.MX8M(Q/M/N/P), barebox PBL is loaded 0x1000 bytes into ITCM
at address 0x7e00_1000. ITCM is 128K followed by 128K of DTCM.

Therefore, in total, barebox PBL may not exceed 0x3f000. Now that we
have a common macro for defining boards, let's add a
MAX_PBL_MEMORY_SIZE_$(entrypoint) into it, so check that we don't
exceed this size at runtime.

Boards that trip over this, should consider using get_builtin_firmware_ext
to offload binaries into barebox proper.
