[U-Boot] [PATCH V2 4/4] cmd_part: add partition-related command

From: Stephen Warren <swarren at nvidia.com>

This implements the following:

part uuid mmc 0:1
  -> print partition UUID
part uuid mmc 0:1 uuid
  -> set environment variable to partition UUID

This can be useful when writing a bootcmd which searches all known
devices for something bootable, and then wants the kernel to use the
same partition as the root device, e.g.:

part uuid ${devtype} ${devnum}:${rootpart} uuid
setenv bootargs root=PARTUUID=${uuid} ...

It is expected that further part sub-commands will be added later, e.g.
to find which partition on a disk is marked bootable, to write new
partition tables to disk, etc.

v2: validate that CONFIG_PARTITION_UUID is defined when CONFIG_CMD_PART is

Note: If Rob Herring's proposed patch "disk/part: introduce
get_device_and_partition" is applied, the body of do_partuuid() should
be reworked to use Rob's new function get_device_and_partition().
