Introduce a new "zephyr,memory-region" compatible to be used when a new
memory region must be created in the linker script from the devicetree
nodes using the compatible.
Remove also the LINKER_DT_REGION_FROM_NODE macro and add a new
LINKER_DT_REGIONS macro to cycle through all the compatible regions.
In the same PR modify the DTS files and the linker scripts.

Add the compatible property to the board level sdram nodes in few stm32
dts files so that the zephyr,memory-region name is used correctly in the
linker script.

This commit adds a new driver category for memory controller
peripherals. There is no API involved for now, as it has not been found
necessary for first implementation.
STM32 Flexible Memory Controller (FMC) is the only controller supported
for now. This peripheral allows to access multiple types of external
memories, e.g. SDRAM, NAND, NOR Flash...
The initial implementation adds support for the SDRAM controller only.
The HAL API is used, so the implementation should be portable to other
STM32 series. It has only been tested on H7 series, so for now it can
only be enabled when working on H7.
Linker facilities have also been added in order to allow applications to
easily define a variable in SDRAM.
