Subject: [PATCH v5 02/14] riscv: integrate alternatives better into the main architecture

Right now the alternatives need to be explicitly enabled and
erratas are limited to SiFive ones.

Over time with more SoCs and additional RiscV extensions, many more
erratas or other patch-worthy features will emerge, so it doesn't
really make sense to have the core alternatives able to get
deactivated.

So make it part of the core RiscV kernel and drop the main
RISCV_ERRATA_ALTERNATIVES config symbol.

This also mimics how arm64 handles its alternatives implementation.
