checkpatch: add option to not force /* */ for SPDX
Add option --spdx-cxx-comments to not force C comments (/* */) for SPDX,
but allow also C++ comments (//).
As documented in
aa19a176df95d6, this is required for some old toolchains
still have older assembler tools which cannot handle C++ style comments.
This avoids forcing this for projects which vendored checkpatch.pl (e.g.
LTP or u-boot).
