[POWERPC] Add bootwrapper support for Marvell/mv64x60 I2C

Some platforms support a variety processor modules with no method of
determining which exact processor module is being used except by
examining Vital Product Data (VPD).  The modules may have different
amounts of memory, clock frequencies, etc. so reading the VPD becomes
necessary to correctly set properties in the device tree before its
passed to the kernel.

Often the VPD is stored in I2C EEPROMs so an I2C driver becomes necessary.
This I2C driver is for the I2C controller that's embedded on the Marvel
mv64x60 line of host bridges.
