sb/intel: Introduce SCMI Kconfig options

Introduce two options for enabling SMBus Control Method Interface [1] support.

1. HAVE_SCMI is to be set by southbridges that implements SCMI in the DSDT.
   That implementation should be conditional on USE_SCMI. See below.
2. USE_SCMI is guarded by HAVE_SCMI and actually provides the option to the
   user in Kconfig. Enabling it adds the SCMI implementation to the DSDT and
   make it usable. Boards that require this support for board function should
   set it in their BOARD_SPECIFIC_OPTIONS, which will lock this option on.

It will be used by CB:41735 but are designed for wider adoption e.g. by CB:44507

+	  specification to the SMBus ACPI device. This provides alternate SMBus access if

+	  ASUS P3B-F mainboard is known to need this.
