timestamp: add generic cache region

In order to accommodate tracking timestamps in all the
__PRE_RAM__ stages (bootblock, verstage, romstage, etc)
of a platform one needs to provide a way to specify
a persistent region of SRAM or cache-as-ram to store
the timestamps until cbmem comes online. Provide that
infrastructure.
