NOR/QSPI Flash on Layerscape board only has limited 64MB memory size.
Since some boards (ls1043ardb/ls1046ardb/ls1088ardb/ls1021atwr)
could support SD card boot, we added SD boot support for them to put
all things on SD card to meet large memory requirement.

The u-boot source code had been migrated to codeaurora
for LSDK-18.06 release and the future release. This
patch is to update u-boot to LSDK-18.06 for both
uboot-layerscape and uboot-layerscape-armv8_32b packages.
Besides, this patch also introduced some other changes.
- Reworked uboot-layerscape makefile to make it more
readable.
- Define package in uboot-layerscape-armv8_32b for each board.
- Fixed u-boot package selection in target image makefile.

The git hash was changed for multiple layerscape packages without
changing the version number. The LEDE build system will not download the
packages again if the old version is already there and so some people
and the build bots are using wrong version of some packages. Use
PKG_SOURCE_DATE instead of PKG_VERSION to generate packages with the
date and the first charterers of the git hash. This will change the file
name and make the build system download them again, also if in future
the git hash is changed the file name will change and trigger a new
download.
This should fix a problem spotted by build bot.

NXP Layerscape LSDK had set up its own open source web site
and github for release.
https://lsdk.github.iohttps://github.com/qoriq-open-source
This patch is to update rcw/fman_ucode/u-boot packages with LSDK
git trees. Also add some patches of packages to support LEDE.
Since ARMv8 32-bit u-boot images are same with ARMv8 64-bit images
but 64-bit toolchain couldn't be used for 32-bit targets, we still
use a private tree for ARMv8 32-bit u-boot images. This is in plan
to move this private tree to NXP Layerscape github.

Rename subtargets 32b/64b with armv8_32b/armv8_64b which are
more proper, and update makefile files. There also will be other
subtargets added in the future, like armv7.

Backport kernel patches for LS1043A Rev1.1 support from upstream,
patchwork, and SDK. And update to latest u-boot to support LS1043A
Rev1.1.

Do not put the u-boot and ucode images into the kernel build directory as this
directory might get removed after kernel updates while the u-boot packages
InstallDev recipe is not getting re-executed because it is still considered
current, leading to image build failures later on due to missing images.
To ensure that built bootloader images persist over kernel version updates in
the buildroot, put them into the new STAGING_DIR_IMAGE directory.

The QorIQ LS1012A processor, optimized for battery-backed or
USB-powered, integrates a single ARM Cortex-A53 core with a hardware
packet forwarding engine and high-speed interfaces to deliver
line-rate networking performance.
QorIQ LS1012A Reference Design System (LS1012ARDB) is a high-performance
development platform, with a complete debugging environment.
The LS1012ARDB board supports the QorIQ LS1012A processor and is
optimized to support the high-bandwidth DDR3L memory and
a full complement of high-speed SerDes ports.
LEDE/OPENWRT will auto strip executable program file while make. So we
need select CONFIG_NO_STRIP=y while make menuconfig to avoid the ppfe network
fiemware be destroyed, then run make to build ls1012ardb firmware.
The fsl-quadspi flash with jffs2 fs is unstable and arise some failed message.
This issue have noticed the IP owner for investigate, hope he can solve it
earlier. So the ls1012ardb now also provide a xx-firmware.ext4.bin as default
firmware, and the uboot bootcmd will run wrtboot_ext4rfs for "rootfstype=ext4"
bootargs.
