[U-Boot] [RFC] sunxi: Support uploading 'boot.scr' to RAM over USB OTG in FEL mode

In order to fully support booting the whole system over USB OTG
without relying on anything else (MMC, SATA, USB sticks, ...), it
is possible to upload the 'boot.scr' file to DRAM using the 'fel'
tool. But U-Boot still needs to be able to pick it up there before
checking any other boot media.

The patch might be not the best way to implement this. But it would
be great if U-Boot had out of the box support for:
http://linux-sunxi.org/index.php?title=FEL/USBBoot&oldid=13134#Boot_the_whole_system_over_USB_.28u-boot_.2B_kernel_.2B_initramfs.29
One of the bad things about this patch is that the "scriptaddr"
variable needs to be hardcoded and protected agaist modifications
(if this address is to be used from the SPL).
Also I'm not sure how this all could fit into the
"config_distro_bootcmd.h" model, so I even have not tried
that yet.
