This patch implements simple hwconfig infrastructure: an
interface for software knobs to control a hardware.
This is very simple implementation, i.e. it is implemented
via `hwconfig' environment variable. Later we could write
some "hwconfig <enable|disable|list>" commands, ncurses
interface for Award BIOS-like interface, and frame-buffer
interface for AMI GUI[1] BIOS-like interface with mouse
support[2].
Current implementation details/limitations:
1. Doesn't support options dependencies and mutual exclusion.
We can implement this by integrating apt-get[3] into the
u-boot. But I didn't bother yet.
2. Since we don't implement hwconfig command, i.e. we're working
with the environement directly, there is no way to tell that
toggling a particular option will need a reboot to take
an effect. So, for now it's advised to always reboot the
target after modifying hwconfig variable.
3. We support hwconfig options with arguments. For example,
set hwconfig dr_usb:mode=peripheral,phy_type=ulpi
That means:
- dr_usb - enable Dual-Role USB controller;
- dr_usb:mode=peripheral - USB in Function mode;
- dr_usb:phy_type=ulpi - USB should work with ULPI PHYs;
The purpose of this simple implementation is to define some
internal API and then we can continue improving user experience
by adding more mature interface, like hwconfig command with
bells and whistles. Or not adding, if we feel that current
interface fits its needs.

[2] Regarding ncurses and GUI with mouse support -- I'm just
kidding.
[3] The comment regarding apt-get is also a joke, meaning that
dependency tracking could be non-trivial. For example, for
enabling HW feature X we may need to disable Y, and turn Z
into reduced mode (like RMII-only interface for ethernet,
no MII).
It's quite trivial to implement simple cases though.

The kernel stores address<->symbol names in it so things can be decoded at
runtime. Do it in U-Boot, and we get nice symbol decoding when crashing.

Since commit a706bfc7 common/env_embedded.o and tools/envcrc were
only built when CONFIG_ENV_IS_EMBEDDED was set, but this breaks
building for many boards.
We always have to build these files when CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH is
set.

Mflash is fusion memory device mainly targeted consumer eletronic and
mobile phone.
Internally, it have nand flash and other hardware logics and supports
some different operation (ATA, IO, XIP) modes.
IO mode is custom mode for the host that doesn't have IDE interface.
(Many mobile targeted SoC doesn't have IDE bus)
This driver support mflash IO mode.
Followings are brief descriptions about IO mode.
1. IO mode based on ATA protocol and uses some custom command. (read
confirm, write confirm)
2. IO mode uses SRAM bus interface.

According to the doc/feature-removal-schedule.txt, the "autoscr"
command will be replaced by the "source" command in approximately 6
months from now.
This patch prepares this change and starts a 6 month transition
period as follows:
- The new "source" command has been added, which implements exactly
the same functionlaity as the old "autoscr" command before
- The old "autoscr" command name is kept as an alias for compatibility
- Command sequences, script files atc. have been adapted to use the
new "source" command
- Related environment variables ("autoscript", "autoscript_uname")
have *not* been adapted yet; these will be renamed resp. removed in
a separate patch when the support for the "autoscr" command get's
finally dropped.

Currently the mtdparts commands are included in the jffs2 command support.
This doesn't make sense anymore since other commands (e.g. UBI) use this
infrastructure as well now. This patch separates the mtdparts commands from
the jffs2 commands making it possible to only select mtdparts when no JFFS2
support is needed.

Modifications to support console multiplexing. This is controlled using
CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_MUX in the board configuration file.
This allows a user to specify multiple console devices in the environment
with a command like this: setenv stdin serial,nc. As a result, the user can
enter text on both the serial and netconsole interfaces.
All devices - stdin, stdout and stderr - can be set in this manner.
1) common/iomux.c and include/iomux.h contain the environment setting
implementation.
2) doc/README.iomux contains a somewhat more detailed description.
3) The implementation in (1) is called from common/cmd_nvedit.c to
handle setenv and from common/console.c to handle initialization of
input/output devices at boot time.
4) common/console.c also contains the code needed to poll multiple console
devices for input and send output to all devices registered for output.
5) include/common.h includes iomux.h and common/Makefile generates iomux.o
when CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_MUX is set.

Several source files need to be compiled and linked when one or more
config options are selected. To allow for easy selection in the
Makefiles yet to avoild multiple compilation (which costs build time)
and especially multiple linking (which causes errors), we use
"COBJS = $(sort COBJS-y)" which eliminates duplicates.

The 'license' command includes the U-Boot license (GPLv2) into the
actual bootloader binary. The license text can be shown interactively
at the U-Boot commandline.
For products where the commandline can actually be accessed by the
end user, this helps to prevent inadvertent GPL violations, since the
GPLv2 license text can no longer be 'forgotten' to be included into
the product.
The 'license' command can be enabled by CONFIG_CMD_LICENSE.
