388a29d024 various cmd_* files: fixed layout a little bit
Most of the files have U_BOOT_CMD on a separate line,
but a few didn't and had the first line on the same line
as U_BOOT_CMD.

This changes these files by adding a line break and a tab

54841ab50c Make sure that argv[] argument pointers are not modified.
The hush shell dynamically allocates (and re-allocates) memory for the
argument strings in the "char *argv[]" argument vector passed to
commands.  Any code that modifies these pointers will cause serious
corruption of the malloc data structures and crash U-Boot, so make
sure the compiler can check that no such modifications are being done
by changing the code into "char * const argv[]".

This modification is the result of debugging a strange crash caused
after adding a new command, which used the following argument
processing code which has been working perfectly fine in all Unix
systems since version 6 - but not so in U-Boot:

int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
	while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
/* ====> */	while (*++*argv) {
			switch (**argv) {
			case 'd':
				debug++;
				break;
			...
			default:
				usage ();
			}
		}
	}
	...
}

The line marked "====>" will corrupt the malloc data structures and
usually cause U-Boot to crash when the next command gets executed by
the shell.  With the modification, the compiler will prevent this with
an
	error: increment of read-only location '*argv'

N.B.: The code above can be trivially rewritten like this:

	while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
		char *arg = *argv;
		while (*++arg) {
			switch (*arg) {
			...

87d93a1ba2 move prototypes for gunzip() and zunzip() to common.h
Prototype for gunzip/zunzip was only in lib_generic/gunzip.c and thus
repeated in every file using it. This patch moves the prototypes to
common.h and removes all prototypes distributed anywhere else.

a89c33db96 General help message cleanup
Many of the help messages were not really helpful; for example, many
commands that take no arguments would not print a correct synopsis
line, but "No additional help available." which is not exactly wrong,
but not helpful either.

Commit ``Make "usage" messages more helpful.'' changed this
partially. But it also became clear that lots of "Usage" and "Help"
messages (fields "usage" and "help" in struct cmd_tbl_s respective)
were actually redundant.

This patch cleans this up - for example:

Before:
	=> help dtt
	dtt - Digital Thermometer and Thermostat

	Usage:
	dtt         - Read temperature from digital thermometer and thermostat.

After:
	=> help dtt
	dtt - Read temperature from Digital Thermometer and Thermostat

	Usage:
	dtt

2fb2604d5c Command usage cleanup
Remove command name from all command "usage" fields and update
common/command.c to display "name - usage" instead of
just "usage". Also remove newlines from command usage fields.

0a823aa2a8 Add 'license' command to U-Boot command line
The 'license' command includes the U-Boot license (GPLv2) into the
actual bootloader binary. The license text can be shown interactively
at the U-Boot commandline.

For products where the commandline can actually be accessed by the
end user, this helps to prevent inadvertent GPL violations, since the
GPLv2 license text can no longer be 'forgotten' to be included into
the product.

The 'license' command can be enabled by CONFIG_CMD_LICENSE.
