[U-Boot] [PATCH] tools/env: change stripping strategy to allow no-stripping

[Thomas Petazzoni]

When building the U-Boot tools for non-ELF platforms (such as Blackfin
FLAT), since commit 79fc0c5f498c3982aa4740c273ab1a9255063d9c
("tools/env: cross-compile fw_printenv without setting HOSTCC"), the
build fails because it tries to strip a FLAT binary, which does not
make sense.

This commit solves this by changing the stripping logic in
tools/env/Makefile to be similar to the one in tools/Makefile. This
logic continues to apply strip to the final binary, but does not abort
the build if it fails, and does the stripping in place on the final
binary. This allows the logic to work fine if stripping doesn't work,
as it leaves the final binary untouched.

An improved solution would be to be able to override STRIP completely
by setting it to /bin/true, but the main Makefile enforces STRIP =
$(CROSS_COMPILE)strip.
