Implement this to add SBE dump management.
Self Boot Engine(SBE) is a microcontroller that sits inside the processor to
initialize it to start the booting and also acts as a secure channel for
accessing certain control functions on the processor. During the booting or
other hardware access operations SBE can encounter errors and become
unresponsive. In such situations, the debug data needs to be collected from
such SBEs to find out the root cause of the error. This data includes
hardware state, configuration, memory, etc. The collected data is then
packaged into the OpenPOWER dump format and which is called as SBE dump.
There will be one instance of SBE on each processor. Implement this
interface to add support for managing the SBE dump.
