doc: a70x0: a80x0: add secondary recovery image disable description
Armada7k/8k supports secondary image boot when flash stores two images. However, in order to support secondary image boot, it requires to enable the option. But this option will interrupt uart recvoery image for A7k and A8K boards. This patch adds description for disabling secondary recovery image in order to build uart recovery image which works well for Armada70x0 and armada80x0 board.

- PALLADIUM: Enables building ATF for palladium target. This mainly involves changing the UART baud rate
and the timer frequency to a lower values to match palladium's setup.
+ - PLAT_RECOVERY_IMAGE_ENABLE: When set this option to enable secondary recovery function when build
+ atf. In order to build uart recovery image this operation should be disabled for a70x0 and a80x0
+ because of hardware limitation(boot from secondary image can interrrupt uart recovery process).
+ This MACRO definition is set in plat/marvell/a8k/common/include/platform_def.h file
