This reverts commit 4968fc8fb1 as the bump
to v2021.01 needs swig on the host for pylibfdt which is needed by dtoc
tool to generate .h/.c files from DTBs in SPL for mx6cuboxi_config.

Upstream in commit 8b9c0cb46471 ("apalis_imx6: boot env configuration
updates") removed emmc legacy wrappers, but so far didn't included any
replacements. Fix it by simply defining the missing variables and UUID
gathering directly into the boot script.

Specifying root filesystem by device is non-deterministic for several
reasons:
- USB device unmeration order is not garunteeed for USB storage devs
- MMC devs ordering is determined by the instance of the MMC host
controller including non-storage SDIO devices which can throw off
numbering depending on kernel versions.
It is recommended to use partition UUID

This patch adds support for GW5907/GW5910/GW5912/GW5913 IMX6 based boards
from the Gateworks Ventana Family[A]:
- backport upstream dt patches from 5.6 to 4.19 and 5.4
- add dtb's to ventana images
- add board-name and network config

Flashing instructions for Ventana boards:
Using pre-flashed bootloader:
- Use appropriate ubi image depending on board NAND to flash via bootloader:
openwrt-imx6-ventana-squashfs-nand.ubi - 2KiB page size
openwrt-imx6-ventana-large-squashfs-nand.ubi - 4KiB page size

Using Gateworks JTAG dongle:
- Use Gateworks mkimage_jtag script to create a JTAG image comprised of
pre-built bootloader and ubi image:

I've added `set_blkcnt` environment variable which is needed for every
`mmc write` command as we need to always specify size in block count.
That `set_blkcnt` variable was previously present in the U-Boot's
default environment, but that needed patching U-Boot every time, so that
patch was dropped with 2020.01 version bump.

This is probably theoretical problem as the Ventana is defined first in
the image Makefile, but once the position of the definition would change
in the future (alphabetical sorting?) it would get bootscript from the
previous board which would have BOOT_SCRIPT set.

Built-in u-boot requires SPL (secondary program loader) to be present on the SD-card regardless of the image type which will be loaded.
SPL is generated by the u-boot-mx6cuboxi package which is preselected by the target device and can be found in bin/u-boot-mx6cuboxi directory.
Flashing the SPL:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M count=4
dd if=bin/targets/imx6/generic/u-boot-mx6cuboxi/SPL of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1K seek=1
Preparing the firmware on the SD-card:
(echo o; echo n; echo p; echo 1; echo ''; echo ''; echo w) | fdisk /dev/mmcblk0
mkfs.ext4 /dev/mmcblk0p1
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
tar -xzf bin/targets/imx6/generic/openwrt-imx6-device-cubox-i-rootfs.tar.gz -C /mnt/
mkdir -p /mnt/boot
cp bin/targets/imx6/generic/{*-uImage,*.dtb,*.scr} /mnt/boot/
Generated u-boot.img needs to be placed on the first partition:
cp bin/targets/imx6/generic/u-boot-mx6cuboxi/u-boot.img /mnt/
To boot from the SD card:
Boot script which sets mmc/dtb parameters and boots the board is automatically sourced.
If this does not work for any reason:
mmc dev 0; load mmc 0:1 $scriptaddr boot/boot.scr; source $scriptaddr
Currently imx6dl-cubox-i.dtb (Dual Lite) and imx6q-cubox-i.dtb (Quad) device trees are available.
Tested on i4Pro, MMC, USB (+ HiD), HDMI and ethernet ports are working.
Wireless and bluetooth are broken ATM. According to SolidRun forums, BCM4329/BCM4330 firmware is used which works fine on older kernels.

The image builder does not bundle sub-directories within $(KERNEL_BUILD_DIR),
therfore the intermediate "ventana-uImage.boot" directory is not shipped,
leading to failures with "make image" later on.
To circumvent the issue, store the intermediate boot files as tar archive
instead of putting them into a directory to ensure that they end up in the
final image builder tarball. Fixes FS#102

Replace the ventana ubi images from a single rootfs volume containing the
rootfs as well as kernel+dtbs in the boot/ subdir to a multi-volume ubi
containing kernel+dtbs+bootscript in 'root' ubifs volume, rootfs in 'rootfs'
squasfs volume, and rootfs_data an empty ubifs volume.
At the same time move ventana image creation over to using the new
TARGET_DEVICE syntax as a cleanup.
Additionally removed FIT image creation as it is recommended that this be
done manually to produce signed FIT images if needed.
Note that a bootscript is needed for Ventana to change its default mtdparts
to rename the 2nd partition from 'rootfs' to 'ubi'. This is because there
are patches in OpenWrt kernels that try to auto-attach and auto-mount and these
get in the way if the mtd partition is named 'rootfs'.
