Julius Werner db7f6fb752 Add buffer_to/from_fifo32(_prefix) helpers
Many peripheral drivers across different SoCs regularly face the same
task of piping a transfer buffer into (or reading it out of) a 32-bit
FIFO register. Sometimes it's just one register, sometimes a whole array
of registers. Sometimes you actually transfer 4 bytes per register
read/write, sometimes only 2 (or even 1). Sometimes writes need to be
prefixed with one or two command bytes which makes the actual payload
buffer "misaligned" in relation to the FIFO and requires a bunch of
tricky bit packing logic to get right. Most of the times transfer
lengths are not guaranteed to be divisible by 4, which also requires a
bunch of logic to treat the potential unaligned end of the transfer
correctly.

We have a dozen different implementations of this same pattern across
coreboot. This patch introduces a new family of helper functions that
aims to solve all these use cases once and for all (*fingers crossed*).
