As of today we enable unaligned access unconditionally on ARCv2.
Do this under a Kconfig option to allow disable it for test, benchmarking
etc. Also while at it

  - Select HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
  - Although gcc defaults to unaligned access (since GNU 2018.03), add the
    right toggles for enabling or disabling as appropriate
  - update bootlog to prints both HW feature status (exists, enabled/disabled)
    and SW status (used / not used).
  - wire up the relaxed memcpy for unaligned access

Arnd in his review pointed out that arch Kconfig organisation has several
deficiencies:

* Build time entries for things which can be runtime extracted from DT
  (e.g. SDRAM size, core clk frequency..)
* Not multi-platform-image-build friendly (choice .. endchoice constructs)
* cpu variants support (750/770) is exclusive.

The first 2 have been fixed in subsequent patches.
Due to the nature of the 750 and 770, it is not possible to build for
both together, w/o special runtime glue code which would hurt
performance.
