Add support for the SolidRun Armada 8040 based Clearfog GT-8K. This
board has the same processor as the Macchiatobin, so we can reuse the
Macchiatobin U-Boot and image definitions.
The kernel fragment enables drivers that are necessary to make
networking ports work (SFP, Ethernet port, and Ethernet switch).

Bump U-Boot and kernel to their latest releases.
Remove the documented limitations. Recent kernels added support for the
SOM SPI flash, and the carrier SFP port.
Mention the 'dd' command in the warning text. No script is involved.

Update the kernel and U-Boot versions to the actual versions in use.
Update the description of supported hardware features.
Add a note that the stale SPI flash environment issue only affects the
vendor BSP.

Bump U-Boot to version 2018.11. This version supports autodetection of
SD/eMMC boot source, so we can now enable environment load from SD card.
Add a U-Boot kconfig fragment that sets SD/eMMC as environment load/save
device. This avoids stale environment values from the SPI flash. That in
turn, allows to use the more convenient distro boot which is enabled in
the default environment.
Bump kernel to version 4.19.2. This version enables
CONFIG_PHY_MVEBU_CP110_COMPHY in the arm64 defconfig, so remove it from
the kernel kconfig fragment. Enable support for SFP modules detection
and configuration. Leave the PHY drivers for now to keep them built into
the kernel. The kernel defconfig builds these drivers as modules. But
that does not work as expected in the default configuration.

Update the kernel version to 4.17.2.
Update U-Boot version to 2018.05.
Migrate to U-Boot generic distro configuration which is easier than the
hand written boot script.
Improve the 'dd' command example in readme.txt.

My goal was to rely on upstreamed features as much as possible, which
means that some bits are only half-baked for now:
- Due to the DTS restructuring in upstream kernel, we require 4.11+. The
latest LTS or CIP kernels do not know about the -Base model.
- Linux has no generic support for SFP cages (yet). It seems that this
has hit the net-next tree in August 2017, but there's been no release
(it's probably targettting 4.14). Also, the merge only included the
required infrastructure; the mvneta driver conversion is not included.
Patches which finalize this exist in Russel King's tree and also in
random vendor trees.
- There's no access to the SPI flash in these versions of
uboot/linux/dts.

[Arnout:
- rename to solidrun_clearfog_defconfig;
- specify kernel headers version (default is now 4.15);
- remove ext2 fs size override, the 4 extra MB are not needed;
- U-Boot needs dtc and openssl;
- add comments to defconfig;
- update .gitlab-ci.yml;
- mention in readme.txt that SFP support is missing;
- add Jan to DEVELOPERS.

Add MacchiatoBin board by SolidRun. This board is based on Marvell
Armada 8040 SoC. Board support package includes the following
two options: mainline and vendor BSPs.
Mainline BSP:
- Marvell ATF v1.3-armada-17.10
- mainline U-Boot v2017.11
- mainline Linux kernel v4.14.4
Marvell BSP with more hardware support enabled:
- Marvell ATF v1.3-armada-17.10
- Marvell U-Boot based on v2017.03
- Marvell Linux kernel based v4.4.52
More details about this board are available on wiki:

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'
