board/spike/riscv64/readme.txt: remove obsolete comment

At the time the spike_riscv64_defconfig was introduced in commit [1], it
was not possible to have a console input using Spike and OpenSBI for
RISC-V 32 bits. This limitation no longer applies, as upstream
components now implements support for this.

Buildroot commit [2] updated riscv-isa-sim (Spike), which now includes a
NS16550 uart emulation. This can be used by RV32 Linux Kernel. Finally,
a spike_riscv32_defconfig was added in [3].

This commit removes the comment about this limitation, since it no
longer applies.
