The linux git trees on github can be huge, and takes a long time to
download, which is not very nice nor convenient for newcomers.
Switch them to using a wget, with the github macro.
A nice side effect of this conversion, is that we no longer need to wait
for the git clone to finish to notice that the ref is gone; doing a wget
will instantly fail in that case.
Mechanical patch, obtained by running (hang-on tight):
$ sed -r -i -e 's/BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_GIT/BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_TARBALL/; /BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_URL/N; s:BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_URL="https\://github.com/([^/]+)/(.+)"\nBR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_VERSION="(.+)":BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_TARBALL_LOCATION="$(call github,\1,\2,\3)/linux-\3.tar.gz":; s/(call github.*)\.git/\1/;' $(grep -l 'BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_URL="https://github.com' configs/*)
olimex_a20_olinuxino_lime_mali had a comment in between, so it was
manually fixed thereafter; that comment was also moved.
Except for socrates_cyclone5 which did not work previously (missing tag
in git tree?), all the affected defconfigs still download their sources.

This commit changes the kernel version used by the
olimex_a20_olinuxino_lime_mali in order to use a version that builds
fine with gcc 5.x. This kernel repository is listed in
https://linux-sunxi.org/Linux#External_links as a possible replacement
for the aging 3.4 sunxi kernel.

Since quite some time, the kernel and bootloader communities consider
zImage as the default format for kernel images on ARM, replacing
uImage. The load address information in uImage is no longer needed,
since the kernel is position-independent in terms of physical address,
except on a few old platforms. For most people, using zImage is simply
better/simpler, so let's switch to zImage as the default image format
on ARM.
All defconfigs are updated: 46 defconfigs no longer need to select
explicitly zImage because it's the default, and 16 defconfigs now need
to explicitly select uImage because that's no longer the default.

For most defconfigs, it was trivial to deduce the kernel version, by
just reading the version string, which could be:
- a standard upstream version string vX.Y.Z
- a non-standard version string, but still containg the standard X.Y.Z
Those for which it was not so trivial were those hosted on git tree.
Since most were already using a custom linux-headers version, it could
be easily deduced from that. It was confirmed by browsing said git trees
and check the version there.
There are a few cases were there was a mismatch:
- microzed: uses a 3.18 kernel, but 3.8 headers; fixed.
- xilinx_zc706: uses a 3.14 kernel, but 3.8 headers; fixed.
- zedboard: uses a 3.18 kernel, but 3.8 headers; fixed.

The files in board/olimex/a20_olinuxino_lime/ work with minimal or no
modifications for the Olimex A20-OLinuXino-Micro board, whose support is
going to be added in a later commit.
Rename the directory to clarify it's not restricted to the Lime anymore.

This commit adds a new defconfig for the Olimex A20 OLinuxino Lime
board, based on the 3.4.x vendor specific kernel, which allows to use
the Mali 3D acceleration for OpenGL support.
