Add a new defconfig based on existing helios4_config file to support
booting from spi flash.

Settings for environment location are based on vendor u-boot:
https://github.com/kobol-io/u-boot/blob/helios4/include/configs/helios4.h#L59

A separate defconfig is required because the options are not
intuitive from menuconfig, numeric values in particular.

So, a super new thing that might be of interest, but please try this
since I'd like to prove/disprove the use-case.  This could instead be:
configs/helios4_spi_defconfig:
#include "configs/helios4_defconfig"
... enable/disable options specific to the SPI boot use case ...

And so now both boards will otherwise be kept in-sync for general config
changes.  It could further be done as:
configs/helios4_spi_defconfig:
#include "configs/helios4_defconfig"
#include "board/kobol/helios4/spiboot.config"

And have board/kobol/helios4/spiboot.config contain the SPI-boot
specific options.  This path would allow for:
make helios4_defconfig spiboot.config
to be a valid alternative way of configuring a build for spiboot.

That would be cool.

Still:
The current version leads to this compilation warning:

WARNING: no maintainers for 'helios4_spi'

Please fix in v2.

Thanks,
Stefan

BTW: Could you please also Cc me directly with such patches?
