Currently, the documentation outlines the process for building the
S-mode U-Boot image using `make menuconfig` and manual actions within
the menuconfig UI. However, this approach is fragile due to Kconfig
options potentially changing across different releases. For example,
CONFIG_OF_PRIOR_STAGE has been replaced by CONFIG_BOARD since v2022.01
release, and CONFIG_TEXT_BASE has been moved to the 'General setup'
menu from the 'Boot options' menu in v2024.01 release.
This update aims to make the S-mode U-Boot image build instructions
future-proof. It leverages the 'config' script provided in the U-Boot
source tree to edit the .config file, followed by a `make olddefconfig`.
Validated with U-Boot v2024.01 release.

In U-Boot v2021.07 release, there were 2 major changes for the
SiFive Unleashed board support:
- Board config name was changed from sifive_fu540_defconfig to
sifive_unleashed_defconfig
- The generic binman tool was used to generate the FIT image
(combination of U-Boot proper, DTB and OpenSBI firmware)
which make the existing U-Boot instructions out of date.
Update the doc with latest instructions.

The supported device bullet list has an additional space before each
entry, which makes a wrong indentation level. Correct it.
