[PATCH] watchdog: add option to provide fall-back restart handler

[Ahmad Fatoum <a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>]

Some barebox ports may have a watchdog, but no restart handler, e.g.
reset happens via PMIC, which has no driver yet, but watchdog controls
reset line going to PMIC. Accommodate such setups by allowing
registration of watchdog as fall back restart handler.

As reset handling can't be disabled, this is made a default n option
to conserve binary size unless explicitly enabled.
