This change allows to keep board description clean and minimalistic.
This is especially helpful if one board may house different CPUs with
different features.
It is applicable to both FPGA-based boards or those that have CPUs
mounted on interchnagable daughter-boards.

Now we may select a particular version of ARC700:
* ARC750D or
* ARC770D
It allows more flexible (or more fine tuned) configuration of U-Boot.
Before that change we relied on minimal configuration but now we may
use specific features of each CPU.
Moreover allows us to escape manual selection of options that
exist in both CPUs but may have say different version like MMUv2 in
ARC750D vs MMUv3 in ARC770D.

Depending on MMU presence in CPU there're differences in HW behavior.
For example address of instruction that caused exception is put in
ECR register if MMU exists and in ERET register otherwise.

The syntax
CROSS_COMIPLE ?= <cross_compiler_prefix>
does not work because config.mk is parsed after
exporting CROSS_COMPILE.
Like Linux Kernel's arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile,
we must write as follows:
ifeq ($(CROSS_COMPILE),)
CROSS_COMPILE := <cross_compiler_prefix>
endif
