The existing u-boot patch option only allowed directories to be
specified. This adds support for URLs using similar code as found
in linux/linux.mk. Local files are also handled now.
This change is useful for Intel Edison support, so that Intel's u-boot
patch can be downloaded rather than stored in the Buildroot source tree.

Allow to generate u-boot.sd, Freescale i.MX28 SB format with a header for
booting from an SD card.
U-boot includes an mxsboot tool to generate this format, starting from
v2011.12.
See u-boot doc/README.mxs (or doc/README.mx28_common before 2013.07).
[Arnout:
- Wrap Config.in help text at 72 columns.
- Remove v from U-Boot version specifier.
- Refer to different README name before 2013.07.
- Depend on host-elftosb
- Add comment to clarify sb -> sd conversion.]

Ever since u-boot introduced the generic spl support in u-boot 2012.10, the
default spl output file has been spl/u-boot-spl.bin and not u-boot-spl.bin,
so use that as a more sane default value.

Some Config.in(.host) files have constructs like:
config FOO_VERSION
string
default "1.0" if FOO_1_0
default "2.0" if FOO_2_0
default $FOO_CUSTOM_VERSION if FOO_CUSTOM
The dollar sign here is not needed and confusing, so can be removed.

On some platforms, the standard U-Boot binary is not called u-boot.bin,
but u-boot<something>.bin. This is for example the case on the
Cavium-provided u-boot, where the output file is called
u-boot_<boardname>.bin.
This patch adds a 'custom format' choice in the existing u-boot binary
format selection, where this name can be put. In the Cavium example, this
option could be set to:
BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_FORMAT_CUSTOM_NAME="u-boot-$(BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_BOARDNAME).bin"

To match the logic we have for BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_PATCH. The user has
already specified a custom patch directory, so we don't need to be
so specific about the what file names we accept, and it becomes quite
cumbersome when a custom git version is used.

This commit provides configuration options to automatically generate a

* the location of a text file describing U-Boot environment.
* the size of the environment.

SPL is a first stage bootloader. On pandaboard it supercedes x-loader,
and should now be used.
This patch ensures that either SPL or xloader can be selected.
A config variable has been added for the name of the SPL binary generated
during u-boot build. For most platform it is u-boot-spl.bin but not always.
It is MLO on OMAP for example.
