This patch makes the U-Boot api export its structure address as an environment
variable, so it can be used to directly hint FreeBSD's loader of api's location.

The relevant FreeBSD loader change is currently under review at:

This patch exports LCD info-query and bitmap-rendering functions to
external apps.

This patch is tested on a Seaboard.  Because the LCD driver is not yet
upstreamed, the test was done in a local downstream repo.

The duplication of the do_reset prototype has gotten out of hand,
and they're not all in sync.  Unify them all in command.h.

The hush shell dynamically allocates (and re-allocates) memory for the
argument strings in the "char *argv[]" argument vector passed to
commands.  Any code that modifies these pointers will cause serious
corruption of the malloc data structures and crash U-Boot, so make
sure the compiler can check that no such modifications are being done
by changing the code into "char * const argv[]".

This modification is the result of debugging a strange crash caused
after adding a new command, which used the following argument
processing code which has been working perfectly fine in all Unix
systems since version 6 - but not so in U-Boot:

int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
	while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
/* ====> */	while (*++*argv) {
			switch (**argv) {
			case 'd':
				debug++;
				break;
			...
			default:
				usage ();
			}
		}
	}
	...
}

The line marked "====>" will corrupt the malloc data structures and
usually cause U-Boot to crash when the next command gets executed by
the shell.  With the modification, the compiler will prevent this with
an
	error: increment of read-only location '*argv'

N.B.: The code above can be trivially rewritten like this:

	while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
		char *arg = *argv;
		while (*++arg) {
			switch (*arg) {
			...

This is an API for external (standalone) applications running on top of
U-Boot, and is meant to be more extensible and robust than the existing
jumptable mechanism. It is similar to UNIX syscall approach. See api/README
for more details.

Included is the demo application using this new framework (api_examples).

Please note this is still an experimental feature, and is turned off by
default.
