9f823615af Kconfig: Add a new DISTRO_DEFAULTS Kconfig option
DISTRO_DEFAULTS is intended to mirror / replace
include/config_distro_defaults.h.

The intend is for boards which include this file to select this from
their Kconfig files and when moving setting to Kconfig which are #define-ed
in config_distro_defaults.h to select this from DISTRO_DEFAULTS so that
boards which have selected DISTRO_DEFAULTS will keep the same configuration
as before without needing any defconfig file changes.

The initial list of selected things matches all settings recently removed
from config_distro_defaults.h because they have been converted to Kconfig,
with the exception of CMD_ELF and CMD_NET, which have a default of y, if
the default of these ever changes they should be selected by DISTRO_DEFAULTS
too.

For testing and example purposes this commit also converts ARCH_SUNXI
to use DISTRO_DEFAULT instead of selecting everything it needs itself.

986691fb97 distro bootcmd: enumerate PCI before network operations
The PCI bus must be enumerated before PCI devices, such as Ethernet
devices, are known to U-Boot. Enhance the distro boot commands to perform
PCI enumeration when needed.

3483b75d94 distro bootcmd: make net boot only optionally start USB
Currently, the distro boot commands always enumerate USB devices before
performing network operations. However, depending on the board and end-
user configuration, network devices may not be attached to USB, and so
enumerating USB may not be necessary. Enhance the scripts to make this
step optional, so that the user can decrease boot time if they don't
need USB.

This change is performed by moving the "usb start" invocation into a
standalone variable. If the user desires, they can replace that
variable's value with some no-op command such as "true" instead.

Booting from a USB storage device always needs to enumerate USB devices,
so this action is still hard-coded.

The word "partition" is doubled.  Keep decent forms for the
following lines.

Also, fix some other typos while we are here.

8c24929019 Document config_distro_bootcmd environment variables for interactive booting.
config_distro_bootcmd.h defines a common boot environment for multiple
platforms, including several environment variables that are intended for
interactive use by an end-user.  Document which variables are considered
public interfaces that must remain compatible in future u-boot versions.

ffb4f6f95a add README.distro file
Add documentation on how to setup a system to use the generic distro
configs and boot commands. This spells out what is needed to make a
system conformant, but does not limit the board to only the defaults.
