sh: intc: IRQ auto-distribution support.
This implements support for hardware-managed IRQ balancing as implemented
by SH-X3 cores (presently only hooked up for SH7786, but can probably be
carried over to other SH-X3 cores, too).
CPUs need to specify their distribution register along with the mask
definitions, as these follow the same format. Peripheral IRQs that don't
opt out of balancing will be automatically distributed at the whim of the
hardware block, while each CPU needs to verify whether it is handling the
IRQ or not, especially before clearing the mask.
