Make MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS and SECTIONS_SIZE_BITS configurable by adding
config options.
Default to current settings currently defined in sparesmem.h.
For systems wishing to save memory the config options can be overridden.
Example, changing MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS from 48 to 36 at the same time as
changing SECTION_SIZE_BITS from 30 to 26 frees 13MB of memory.
