Also adding the '-m4' device tree blobs which allow to disable the
peripherals that are used by the Cortex-M4.
The 6x_bootscript is already setup to load the '-m4' dtb if m4enabled
u-boot variable is set to 1.

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.

It didn't make sense to keep the U-Boot scripts and post build/image
scripts under the nitrogen6x folder since they apply for all our
platforms.
Also update the readme.txt to make it clearer which defconfig should
be used depending on the platform targeted.

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.

Those scripts are executed by u-boot in order to detect the hardware
configuration (board, displays etc...), configure the bootargs and
device tree accordingly or update the bootloader located in NOR flash.
This update is necessary due to the kernel bump to version 3.10.53.
The rework consists of replacing the binaries by their text file
equivalent and generate the binaries from the post-build.sh script.

u-boot fixup
The Boundary Devices Nitrogen6X comes in a number of variants
with different processors, and the kernel and userspace is
compatible with the SABRE Lite (BD-SL-i.MX6), Nitrogen6_Lite,
and Nitrogen6_Max boards.
This patch adds support for these boards through the
corresponding .dtb files.
