config_distro_bootcmd.h: add note on error handling

This should make it more clear why there appear to be C pre-processor
symbols in the file that contain mixed case. They're really error
messages.

distro_bootcmd: read DHCP boot script name from a variable

Modify $bootcmd_dhcp to read the downloaded script filename from an
environment variable rather than hard-coding it. This allows the user
(or another script) to select a different script name if they want,
without editing the whole value of $bootcmd_dhcp.

distro_distro_bootcmd: use CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND instead of setting bootcmd=

Move the bootcmd commands into a seperate distro_bootcmd environment
variable. Allowing a user to easily launch the distro boot sequence if
the default bootcmd did not default to distro boot commands.

Also set CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND to "run distro_bootcmd" if it hasn't been
configured yet rather then putting it directly in the environment. This
allows boards to make the distro boot commands available without
necessarily default to them or to use them as a fallback after running
some board specific commands instead.

config_distro_bootcmd: Scan all partitions for boot files

Not all devices use the convention that the boot scripts are on the
first partition. For example on chromebooks it seems common for the
first two partitions to be ChromeOS kernel partitions.

So instead of just the first partition scan all partitions on a device
with a filesystem u-boot can recognize.

config: introduce a generic $bootcmd

This generic $bootcmd, and associated support macros, automatically
searches a defined set of storage devices (or network protocols) for an
extlinux configuration file or U-Boot boot script in various standardized
locations. Distros that install such a boot config file/script in those
standard locations will get easy-to-set-up booting on HW that enables
this generic $bootcmd.

Boards can define the set of devices from which boot is attempted, and
the order in which they are attempted. Users may later customize this
set/order by edting $boot_targets.

Users may interrupt the boot process and boot from a specific device
simply by executing e.g.:

$ run bootcmd_mmc1
or:
$ run bootcmd_pxe

This patch was originally written by Dennis Gilmore based on Tegra and
rpi_b boot scripts. I have made the following modifications since then:

* Boards must define the BOOT_TARGET_DEVICES macro in order to specify
the set of devices (and order) from which to attempt boot. If needed,
we can define a default directly in config_distro_bootcmd.h.

* Removed $env_import and related variables; nothing used them, and I
think it's better for boards to pre-load an environment customization
file using CONFIG_PREBOOT if they need.

* Renamed a bunch of variables to suit my whims:-)
