Provide a way to use any host file or device as a block device in U-Boot.
This can be used to provide filesystem access within U-Boot to an ext2
image file on the host, for example.
The support is plumbed into the filesystem and partition interfaces.
We don't want to print a message in the driver every time we find a missing
device. Pass the information back to the caller where a message can be printed
if desired.

This allows write of files from the host filesystem in sandbox. There is
currently no concept of overwriting the file and removing its existing
contents - all writing is done on top of what is there. This means that
writing 10 bytes to the start of a 1KB file will only update those 10
bytes, not truncate the file to 10 byte slong.
If the file does not exist it is created.

The new 'sb' command is intended to deal with sandbox-specific features
that have no parallel in other archs. This commit adds two sub-commands
to list a directory and read a file from the host filesystem.
