Thomas Petazzoni c40e673c5c uboot: add support for generating U-Boot boot scripts
More and more of our defconfigs need to generate a U-Boot boot
script. It's a simple call to mkimage, but we already have 12
instances of this logic in board/, and there are patch series waiting
in patchwork adding 3 more boards that need this.

So let's add an option in the U-Boot package to generate such a boot
script image easily.

Note that we assume a single script needs to be generated, and the
output file name is boot.scr. The only platform for which it seems to
not be the case are the Boundary Devices platforms: they generate two
boot scripts, 6x_bootscript and 6x_upgrade, but they are anyway
installed inside TARGET_DIR, not BINARIES_DIR.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
