Yidi Lin c68176c14e soc/mediatek: Add EARLY_MMU_INIT kconfig option
Accessing RAM before mmu initialized is time consuming. During mmu
initialization, `mmu_init()` and `mmu_config_range()` write logs to the
console buffer and contribue the extra boot time.

This patch adds a kconfig option to move `mtk_mmu_init()` to
`bootblock_soc_early_init()`. When `EARLY_MMU_INIT` is enabled, mmu is
initialized before `console_init()` ready. So `mmu_init()` and
`mmu_config_range()` won't write logs to the console buffer and save the
boot time.

It saves about 65ms on Geralt with EARLY_MMU_INIT enabled.

Before:
   0:1st timestamp                                     239,841 (0)
  11:start of bootblock                                239,920 (79)
  12:end of bootblock                                  323,191 (83,271)

After:
   0:1st timestamp                                     239,804 (0)
  11:start of bootblock                                239,884 (80)
  12:end of bootblock                                  258,846 (18,962)
