ARM: add CONFIG_UNUSED_BOARD_FILES
Based on the recent mailing list discussion, most board file support has no remaining users and can be scheduled for removal early next year. If a board is still found to have users, it will remain for this round but users are encouraged to migrate to devicetree based booting where possible. The timing is meant to ensure the next longterm supported kernel still contains all the board files, giving another year of support for potential users that did not speak up and would otherwise be stuck on the v5.15.y longterm kernel from 2021.
