3339f41d26 brcm2708: implement sysupgrade image check
Implement a crude but functioning sysupgrade image check for the
Raspberry Pi. The code only checks if the master boot record boot
signature (0x55aa) is present in the first 512-bytes at the correct
location. This can prevent the odd bricking of a system when flashing
the wrong file.

2de7910102 brcm2708: Implement sysupgrade
Implement sysupgrade for Raspberry Pi, similar to the way it is done on x86:
The config files are saved in the boot partition and moved to where they are
normally expected in preinit.

Also add optional gzip compression for the SD card image, since this can save
a lot of space (76M vs 6M), also similar to x86.
