[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/2] remove main CHANGELOG file

CHANGELOG is a duplicate of the u-boot project's git log: remove it.

It is assumed that this file's only purpose is to serve non-git users
downloading u-boot project source in the form of a tarball release.  If
that is the case, then the generation of the CHANGELOG file should occur
at tarball release generation time, and not consume duplicate history,
slowing things down and polluting grep match results for u-boot
developers using git.

u-boot project git history goes back to before u-boot 0.1.0, so remove
CHANGELOG-before-U-Boot-1.1.5 file too.

<deleted rest of patch due to excessive size, but something like this
should do it:

git am <this-message>; git rm CHANGELOG*; git add -u; git commit
