[PATCH] cmd: add a panic command

From: Heiko Stuebner <heiko.stuebner at theobroma-systems.com>

Even in boot scripts it may be needed to "panic" when all options
are exhausted and the device specification specifies hanging
instead of resetting the board.

So add a new panic command that just wraps around the core panic
call in uboot and can take an optional message.
