Add custom version option as used in the linux kernel.
This way we can easily specify newer and older version.
Remove the list of the older versions because is obsoleted
by the new custom version option that is more flexible.

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
binary environment image for U-Boot.
Two options are available (and mandatory):
* the location of a text file describing U-Boot environment.
* the size of the environment.

Closes#5846
The $(dir ...) function leaves a slash at the end, so that the LINUX_SITE
variable for a custom tarball ends in a slash. The DOWNLOAD macro adds
another slash between SITE and SOURCE, which results in a double slash in
the download URL.
Fix this by stripping off the final slash from the _SITE in all packages that
have a custom tarball.

Note that this new package, at91bootstrap3, is being added alongside the
existing at91bootstrap. This was suggested by Thomas Petazzoni, whose
comments on the mailing list are quoted below.
For this package, I am not sure we can do a simple version bump. Since
there is (was?) no upstream for AT91Bootstrap 1.x, many
vendors/companies had to maintain their patches on top of AT91Bootstrap
1.x. See for example
board/calao/usb-a9263/at91bootstrap-1.16-usb-a9263.patch. Therefore,
removing AT91Bootstrap 1.x from the tree will prevent those platforms
to work. I know people should upgrade, but AT91Bootstrap 3.x is quite
significantly different, so the porting effort is not that simple.
Therefore, I'm wondering whether we should kee at91bootstrap as it is,
and create a separate package at91bootstrap3 for the 3.x generation.

MXS platforms (imx23 and imx28) are relying on bootlets as their first
stage bootloaders, that can then either start a regular second stage
bootloader or directly a Linux kernel. However, the Makefile allows
only to build u-boot and linux images at the same time, which is
not very convenient as we will more likely use only one of them,
so we need to duplicate a bit what is already done so that we are able
to choose what we want to generate.
thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com:
* Remove incorrect dependency on BR2_PACKAGE_ELFTOSB
* Each board configuration option is for one board, not multiple
boards, so use singular.
* The i.MX28 support is for i.MX28 EVK only, reflect that in the
option prompt and the option name.
* Use 'generic-package' instead of GENTARGETS
