ARM: stm32mp: build extra barebox-stm32mp-generic-bl33.img
barebox-dt-2nd.img expects being loaded at an offset, so the stack can grow down from entry point. The STM32MP TF-A default is to not have an offset. Avoid this issue by having a stm32mp specific entry point that sets up a 64 byte stack after end of barebox. As it's stm32mp-specific anyway, we can skip the early FDT parsing and ask the SDRAM controller about RAM size.

+For different boards, adjust ``DTB_FILENAME`` and ``BL33_CFG`` as appropriate.
