arch/arm: introduce the pre-stack/RAM init hook

Introduce hook for customize reset.S code even before stack is
initialized or RAM is accessed. Hook can be enabled using
CONFIG_SOC_EARLY_RESET_HOOK=y.
Hook implementation is by soc_early_reset_hook() function which should
be provided by custom code.

+	  Run a SoC-specific hook early in the reset/startup code (__start).
+	  A custom hook soc_early_reset_hook() will be executed at the beginning
+	  of the architecture-specific startup code, after hardware has been
+	  configured as required by CONFIG_INIT_ARCH_HW_AT_BOOT.
+
+	  Returning from this hook is not mandatory: it can be used to implement
+	  special logic to resume execution in some scenarios (for example, when
+	  a bootloader is used).
+
+	  The hook is called immediately after reset so use stack wisely if
+	  the hook intends to return to continue with arch's resume/reset activity.
+	  The stack pointer register should be considered as not initialized by the caller of
+	  this hook. In particular, this means that the hook is NOT allowed to
+	  "push" any data using this stack pointer value. However, the hook may use
+	  an implementation-specific area as stack if desired; in such case,
+	  the original value of the stack pointer needs not to be "restored"
+	  before returning control to the hook's caller.
+
+	  Additional constraints may be imposed on the hook by the architecture.
