feat: Add DebugInfra module for firmware debugging

This commit adds the DebugInfra module, which enables users to send commands from the main CPU (using /dev/mvsw_fw_comm_debug character device) to the firmware CPU for debugging purposes.

With this module, developers can execute commands directly on the firmware CPU, inspect its current state, and gather information for debugging firmware-related issues.

mrvl-fw-image_4.0.3 module is built on top of the Marvell firmware CPU version 4.3.5.038.

More detailed information can be found in the dentOs package documentation.

@vlaggeor, thank you for uploading this. Very interesting. One nit: Could you please use present tense?

Could you please add documentation on how to use it?
