common/update.c should be completely dropped from U-Boot because it is
not used by any board and the dfu command can be used instead.

The DFU API is described in include/dfu.h. This is sufficient to
implement an update. I agree that it may make sense to provide functions
at a higher abstraction level. These functions should be in drivers/dfu/.
