board: starqltechn: get board usable - add bootcmd and docs

U-boot is intended to replace linux kernel in android boot image(ABL), and
it's FIT payload to replace initramfs file. The boot process is similar to
boot image with linux:
- android bootloader (ABL) unpacks android boot image
- ABL sets `linux,initrd-start property` in chosen node in unpacked FDT
- ABL sets x0 register to FDT address, and passes control to u-boot
- u-boot reads x0 register, and stores it in `prevbl_fdt_addr` env variable
- u-boot reads `linux,initrd-start` property,
and stores it in `prevbl_initrd_start_addr`

In this way, u-boot bootcmd relies on `prevbl_initrd_start_addr` env
variable, and boils down to `bootm $prevbl_initrd_start_addr`.
If more control on boot process is desired, pack a boot script in
FIT image, and put it to default configuration

What done:
- strip unneeded config options
- add FIT image support
- add framebuffer node, u-boot logo and video console
- increase LMB_MAX_REGIONS, to store all linux dtb reserved memory regions
- add linux kernel image header

Uart driver causes hang, when u-boot is used in android boot image instead
of linux. Temporary disable console driver, until investigated and fixed.

This will build ``u-boot.bin`` in the configured output directory.
Generate FIT image
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
See doc/uImage.FIT for more details
Pack android boot image
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
We'll assemble android boot image with ``u-boot.bin`` instead of linux kernel,
and FIT image instead of ``initramfs``. Android bootloader expect gzipped kernel
with appended dtb, so let's mimic linux to satisfy stock bootloader:
- create dump dtb::
workdir=/tmp/prepare_payload
mkdir -p "$workdir"
cd "$workdir"
mock_dtb="$workdir"/payload_mock.dtb
dtc -I dts -O dtb -o "$mock_dtb" << EOF
/dts-v1/;
/ {
memory {
/* We expect the bootloader to fill in the size */
reg = <0 0 0 0>;
};
chosen { };
};
EOF
- gzip u-boot ``gzip u-boot.bin``
- append dtb to gzipped u-boot: ``cat u-boot.bin.gz "$mock_dtb" > u-boot.bin.gz-dtb``
Now we've got everything to build android boot image:::
mkbootimg --base 0x0 --kernel_offset 0x00008000 \
--ramdisk_offset 0x02000000 --tags_offset 0x01e00000 \
--pagesize 4096 --second_offset 0x00f00000 \
--ramdisk "$fit_image" \
--kernel u-boot.bin.gz-dtb \
-o boot.img
