mpc83xx: sbc8349 - make enabling PCI more user friendly
Prior to this commit, to enable PCI, you had to go manually edit the board config header, which isn't really user friendly. This adds the typical PCI make targets to the toplevel Makefile in accordance with what is being done with other boards.

PCI:
====
-This board and U-Boot have been tested with PCI built in, on a SBC8349
-and confirmed that the "pci" command showed the intel e1000 that was
-present in the PCI slot. Note that if a 33MHz 32bit card is inserted
-in the slot, then the whole board will clock down to a 33MHz base
-clock instead of the default 66MHz. This will change the baud clocks
-and mess up your serial console output. If you want to use a 33MHz PCI
-card, then you should build a U-Boot with #undef PCI_66M in the
-include/configs/sbc8349.h and store this to flash prior to powering down
-the board and inserting the 33MHz PCI card.
-
-By default PCI support is disabled to better support very early
-revision MPC834x chips with possible PCI issues. Also PCI support is
-untested on the sbc8347 variants at this point in time.

+There are three configuration choices:
+ sbc8349_config
+ sbc8349_PCI_33_config
+ sbc8349_PCI_66_config
+
+The 1st does not enable CONFIG_PCI, and assumes that the PCI slot
+will be left empty (M66EN high), and so the board will operate with
+a base clock of 66MHz. Note that you need both PCI enabled in u-boot
+and linux in order to have functional PCI under linux. The only
+reason for choosing to not enable PCI would be if you had a very
+early (rev 1.0) CPU with possible PCI issues.
+
+The second enables PCI support and builds for a 33MHz clock rate. Note
+that if a 33MHz 32bit card is inserted in the slot, then the whole board
+will clock down to a 33MHz base clock instead of the default 66MHz. This
+will change the baud clocks and mess up your serial console output if you
+were previously running at 66MHz. If you want to use a 33MHz PCI card,
+then you should build a U-Boot with sbc8349_PCI_33_config and store this
+to flash prior to powering down the board and inserting the 33MHz PCI
+card.
+
+The third option builds PCI support in, and leaves the clocking at the
+default 66MHz. This has been tested with an intel PCI-X e1000 card.
+This is also the appropriate choice for people with a recent (non 1.0)
+CPU who currently have the PCI slot physically empty, but intend to
+possibly add a PCI-X card at a later date.
