I've just realised that if you had an existing hardcoded bootdelay= to
cover the case where it wasn't being inserted through env_defaults you
would now end up with two.

However checking there's 6 boards (9 configs) which possibly have this
problem, but none of them have a -ve value for CONFIG_BOOTDELAY. If I
revert this change and then grep out bootdelay from the generated
environments for those configs, 7 have duplicates before this change
(the last two are odroid-c2 and odroid-xu3 which are fine):

cl-som-am57x/uboot.env: bootdelay=2
cl-som-am57x/uboot.env: bootdelay=3
cm_t54/uboot.env: bootdelay=3
cm_t54/uboot.env: bootdelay=3
display5_factory/uboot.env: bootdelay=3
display5_factory/uboot.env: bootdelay=1
display5/uboot.env: bootdelay=2
display5/uboot.env: bootdelay=1
nas220/uboot.env: bootdelay=3
nas220/uboot.env: bootdelay=-1
odroid/uboot.env: bootdelay=2
odroid/uboot.env: bootdelay=0
vinco/uboot.env: bootdelay=3
vinco/uboot.env: bootdelay=0

I don't think there's anything here for me to fix up, but the
maintainers of those boards probably want to figure out which of the
bootdelay values they wanted.

I wonder if we want some QA process off the end of the build (or in
buildman?) which verifies the extracted environment for duplicate
entries.
