Add support for specifying multiple image files in
BR2_TARGET_BAREBOX_IMAGE_FILE config option.
This is useful for boards with several RAM size variants.

This unique NAME is used to construct a per br2-external tree variable,
BR2_EXTERNAL_$(NAME)_PATH, which contains the path to the br2-external
tree.
This variable is available both from Kconfig (set in the Kconfig
snippet) and from the .mk files.
Also, display the NAME and its path as a comment in the menuconfig.
This will ultimately allow us to support multiple br2-external trees at
once, with that NAME (and thus BR2_EXTERNAL_$(NAME)) uniquely defining
which br2-external tree is being used.
The obvious outcome is that BR2_EXTERNAL should now no longer be used to
refer to the files in the br2-external tree; that location is now known
from the BR2_EXTERNAL_$(NAME)_PATH variable instead. This means we no
longer need to expose, and must stop from from exposing BR2_EXTERNAL as
a Kconfig variable.
Finally, this also fixes a latent bug in the pkg-generic infra, where we
would so far always refer to BR2_EXTERNAL (even if not set) to filter
the names of packages (to decide whether they are a bootloader, a
toolchain or a simple package).
Note: since the variables in the Makefile and in Kconfig are named the
same, the one we computed early on in the Makefile will be overridden by
the one in .config when we have it. Thus, even though they are set to
the same raw value, the one from .config is quoted and, being included
later in the Makefile, will take precedence, so we just re-include the
generated Makefile fragment a third time before includeing the
br2-external's Makefiles. That's unfortunate, but there is no easy way
around that as we do want the two variables to be named the same in
Makefile and Kconfig (and we can't ask the user to un-quote that variable
himself either), hence this little dirty triple-inclusion trick.

Barebox provides an option to embed a custom environment image into
barebox binary. This image will be used, when the environment found in
the environment sector is invalid. Both embedded and external images
can be used together, so having both options at the same time is
justified.
This patch sets barebox Kconfig option CONFIG_DEFAULT_ENVIRONMENT_PATH
to user specified path. This way one can use such BR's variables like
BR2_EXTERNAL, TOPDIR etc. to provide paths to custom environment
folders.

Adds support to build barebox with an auxiliary config.
This is useful for building an SPL (Secondary Program Loader) in
addition to the traditional TPL (Tertiary Program Loader). The
Beaglebone Black for example has two barebox configurations:
- am335x_defconfig builds the full barebox bootloader with device
tree
- am335x_mlo_defconfig builds the smaller MLO bootloader that loads
the full barebox bootloader from the eMMC or SD card.
Tested with the following defconfig:
