Add the initial bootmeth_openwrt driver with:

- UCLASS_BOOTMETH driver, compatible "u-boot,openwrt"
- check(): accept block devices via bootflow_iter_check_blk()
- bind(): set BOOTMETHF_ANY_PART so bootstd iterates all partitions
  without requiring a filesystem
- read_bootflow(): stub returning -ENOENT
- boot(): stub returning -ENOSYS
- Kconfig: CONFIG_BOOTMETH_OPENWRT depending on FIT, BOOTSTD,
  BOOTM_STORAGE

This is the foundation for booting OpenWrt-style uImage.FIT firmware
images stored directly on raw storage partitions. The bootmeth will
delegate actual image loading to the existing bootm storage path via
image_loader.
