[U-Boot] [PATCH] Makefile: restore *_config target

The switch to KConfig break the [board]_config target. This breaks
backwards compatibility and hence all documentation about how to
build u-boot is no longer valid. It is also annoying for general
recipes to build u-boot as contained in buildroot, crochet, oe,
poky, eldk etc. Hence restore the *_config target.
