[PATCH v4 3/8] arm: parse cpu capacity from DT

With the introduction of cpu capacity bindings, CPU capacities can now be
extracted from DT. Add parsing of such information at boot time. We keep
code that can produce same information, based on different DT properties
and hard-coded values, as fall-back for backward compatibility.

Caveat: the information provided by this patch will start to be used in
the future, by properly defining arch_scale_cpu_capacity().

 Changes from v1:
  - normalize w.r.t. highest capacity found in DT
  - bailout conditions (all-or-nothing)
