[U-Boot] [PATCH V2 1/5] fs: fix generic save command implementation

From: Stephen Warren <swarren at nvidia.com>

Fix a few issues with the generic "save" shell command, and fs_write()
function.

1) fstypes[].write wasn't filled in for some file-systems, and isn't
   checked when used, which could cause crashes/... if executing save
   on e.g. fat/ext filesystems.

2) fs_write() requires the length argument to be non-zero, since it needs
   to know exactly how many bytes to write. Adjust the comments and code
   according to this.

3) fs_write() wasn't prototyped in <fs.h> like other generic functions;
   other code should be able to call this directly rather than invoking
   the "save" shell command.
