[nrf fromtree] cmake: move script mode handling from package helper to extensions.cmake

Move Zephyr CMake script mode handling from package_helper.cmake into
extensions.cmake.

This ensures that all Zephyr CMake script which includes
extensions.cmake will have the same functions stubbed or mocked and thus
does not need to replicate this behavior.
