The DFU code currently sets the content of "serial#" environment
variable into Device Descriptor iSerial field. This is useful when
there are multiple devices connected to the same host PC and they
have to be told apart. Replicate the same behavior in the UMS code.
Example without serial# set, which is the original behavior:
"
u-boot=> ums 0 mmc 1
UMS: LUN 0, dev mmc 1, hwpart 0, sector 0x0, count 0x1d5a000
$ dmesg -w

Example with serial# set to 1234abcd, which is the optional new behavior:
"
u-boot=> setenv serial# 1234abcd <------------------------------ HERE
