[PATCH] ARM: i.MX: HABv4: point out i.MX6 specifics in docs and Kconfig help text

Signed USB images are a i.MX6 quirk as we need a point to DCD for
imx-usb-loader to work with, but the DCD pointer needs to be invalidated
for actual boot.

On i.MX8M*, RAM setup can't be done completely by DCD anymore, so not
having a DCD table is the norm and we don't need a signed USB image.

Thus mark CONFIG_HABV4_IMAGE_SIGNED_USB i.MX6 only and while at it, fix
hardcoded instances of i.MX6 headers.
