[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH 7/7] mvebu: espressobin: add u-boot environment

This commit adds U-Boot environment defaults which extend the
bootloader to automatically boot the ESPRESSObin board from other
connected mediums i.e. SATA disk or USB disk.
The assigned boot probe order is as follows:
1. USB (usb0), 2. SATA (scsi0), 3. µSD (mmc0), 4. eMMC (mmc1).
U-Boot will iterate through them utill it'll find on one of devices the
uEnv.txt file. If not found, it'll fall back to loading using boot.scr
(loading from boot.scr is compatible only with U-Boot version 2017.03 or
later). There is also self update mechanism implemented which will
trigger if the variable 'owrt_uenv_ver' is changed.
This commit also adds compatibility with newer U-Boot versions in which
kernel_addr and fdt_addr environment variables changed names to
kernel_addr_r and fdt_addr_r.

The bootloader environment preparation needs to be done for every new
deployment and for every board with U-Boot 2015.01 version.
1. Connect/insert boot device with OpenWrt,
2. Power on the board and enter U-Boot command line,
3. Execute following commands:
    usb start
    scsi scan
    ext4load mmc 0:1 $loadaddr uEnv.txt || ext4load scsi 0:1 $loadaddr uEnv.txt || ext4load usb 0:1 $loadaddr uEnv.txt
    env import -t $loadaddr
    env delete $old_or_temp_vars
    saveenv
    reset
4. Now board should automatically find boot medium with OpenWrt
   installation and boot it.
