[PATCH v4 04/10] of: fdt: Add generic support for parsing usable memory range property

Add support for parsing the "linux,usable-memory-range" property in the
"/chosen" node to the FDT core code.  This can co-exist safely with the
architecture-specific parsing, until the latter has been removed.

Architecture-specific code still has to make sure the resulting memory
range limitation is applied, if present.

About the change to chosen.txt: I have a similar change for
schemas/chosen.yaml in dt-schema.
