RISC-V Debug specification includes Sdtrig ISA extension
which describes Trigger Module. Triggers can cause
a breakpoint exception or trace action without execution
of a special instruction. They can be used to implement
hardware breakpoints and watchpoints for native debugging.

The SBI Debug Trigger extension v6 can be found at:
https://lists.riscv.org/g/tech-debug/topic/99825362#1302

This patch is an initial implementation of SBI Debug Trigger
Extension(v6) in OpenSBI. It is based on similar patchset
from Sergey Matyukevich.
(http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/opensbi/2022-October/003531.html)

The following features are supported:
* mcontrol, mcontrol6 triggers
* Breakpoint and trace actions

Linux Kernel Branch (Breakpoint driver support):
https://github.com/hschauhan/riscv-linux/tree/sdtrig-v6

NOTE: Chained triggers are not supported

Changes from v2:
  - Detection of sdtrig support (via trap and ISA string)
  - Removed redundant functions (sdtrig supports and get total triggers)
  - Removed check for S-mode
  - Skip the debug trigger probing if already probed for CPU (warm boot)

Changes from v1:
  - Rebased to latest OpenSBI master
  - Other cosmetic changes as per the comments
