[PATCH v2] lib: sbi: Ensure SBI extension is available

Ensure attempts to invoke SBI extension functions fail with
SBI_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED when the extension's probe function has
reported that the extension is not available. By adding a new status
member to the extension, which has three states (uninitialized,
available, unavailable), we can ensure that the probe functions of
single ID extensions, i.e.  extid_start == extid_end, are only
invoked once, lazily, upon first use. Extensions that have multiple
IDs cannot use a single status field to avoid making probe calls, as
probe functions are extension ID specific. It's expected that these
multi-ID extension probe functions implement their own optimizations
in order to ensure extension lookups are fast.
