[U-Boot] [PATCH] env_ram.c: import env from other boot loader

If the system has dual boot loader, say loader1 and u-boot is loader2.
If loader1 will be booted before u-boot and then pass env to u-boot in
the format of u-boot's env, this module provides importing env from ram.

This feature needs to add related support in cmd_nvedit.c.
