brcm63xx: use relocate to move the kernel back to start of ram

Appearently the kernel only uses kernel above it, so moving it to an
higher address causes a lot of unavailable memory (#19327).

Also move the on-flash kernel to 0x80a0000, as newer CFEs don't like
uncompressing there (net-booting an ELF kernel is fine, though).
