Document SRC_GPR10 PERSIST_SECONDARY_BOOT functionality. This is useful for
reliable bootloader A/B updates, as it permits switching between two copies
of bootloader at different offsets of the same storage. The switch happens
in case one copy is corrupted OR can be enforced by user. This functionality
is present at least since i.MX53, however is poorly documented in all known
SoC datasheets, hence this document aims to clarify the usage, currently on
i.MX7D and i.MX8MM.

Move this documentation over to reST. Move the example files into a files/
directory so they are still separate.
Do a few minor updates while we are here:
- Tidy up sandbox build instructions
- Update my github account name
- Add some talks and links

This patch adds a new pstore command allowing to display or save ramoops
logs (oops, panic, console, ftrace and user) generated by a previous
kernel crash.
PStore parameters can be set in U-Boot configuration file, or at run-time
using "pstore set" command. Records size should be the same as the ones
used by kernel, and should be a power of 2.
This command allows:
- to display uncompressed logs
- to save compressed or uncompressed logs, compressed logs are saved as a
compressed stream, it may need some work to be able to decompress it,
e.g. adding a fake header:
"printf "\x1f\x8b\x08\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" |
cat - dmesg-ramoops-0.enc.z | gzip -dc"
- ECC part is not used to check memory corruption
- only 1st FTrace log is displayed or saved

Convert Android documentation from regular txt format to Sphinx (RST).
Also add Android index.rst file and reference it in root index.rst, so
that Android documentation is visible.
