It may be useful for users using Boundary Devices boards to find
more advanced defconfigs that the one provided by Buildroot.

- To avoid code duplication and to benefit from support script
improvements like empty target dir.
- Note that currently genimage.sh can't be set in defconfig directly for
i.MX8 targets as the POST_SCRIPT_ARGS is used by
imx8-bootloader-prepare.sh

Also include new boot scripts to match standard distro uboot commands.
Our previous 6x_bootscript and 6x_upgrade used custom variables and
their naming don't make sense now that we target more than i.MX6 CPU.
Therefore those old scripts are marked as legacy and kept for now but
the goal is to deprecate and remove them later.

Our new WiFi 802.11ac BT4.1 module (BD-SDMAC [1]) driver allows to
override the wlan MAC address using a module parameter.
Since its driver is now included in our external repository [2], update
the bootscript so it sets the parameter for that driver too.
As a FYI, $wlmac is based on Ethernet MAC address located in fuses.

Since things are no longer installed in $(HOST_DIR)/usr, the callers
should also not refer to it.
This is a mechanical change with
git grep -l 'HOST_DIR}\?/usr/' board | xargs sed -i 's%\(HOST_DIR}\?\)/usr/%\1/%g'

It didn't make sense to keep the U-Boot scripts and post build/image
scripts under the nitrogen6x folder since they apply for all our
platforms.
Also update the readme.txt to make it clearer which defconfig should
be used depending on the platform targeted.

Those scripts will support coming platforms such as iMX6SoloX or
iMX6QuadPlus.
One important change is that the bootscript now relies on U-Boot to
make the display detection in order to simplify the script.

Those scripts are executed by u-boot in order to detect the hardware
configuration (board, displays etc...), configure the bootargs and
device tree accordingly or update the bootloader located in NOR flash.
This update is necessary due to the kernel bump to version 3.10.53.
The rework consists of replacing the binaries by their text file
equivalent and generate the binaries from the post-build.sh script.
