- Extend ub_dev_read() and ub_dev_recv() so they return the length actually
read, which allows for better control and error handling (this introduces
additional error code API_ESYSC returned by the glue mid-layer).
- Clean up definitions naming and usage.
- Other minor cosmetics.
Note these changes do not touch the API proper, so the interface between
U-Boot and standalone applications remains unchanged.

De-hardcode range in RAM we search for the API signature. Instead use the stack
pointer as a hint to narrow down the range in which the signature could reside
(it is malloc'ed on the U-Boot heap, and is hoped to remain in some proximity
from stack area). Adjust PowerPC code in API demo to the new scheme.

This fixes a build breakage with CONFIG_API enabled, which appeared after
the recent changes in the U-Boot build system.

This is an API for external (standalone) applications running on top of
U-Boot, and is meant to be more extensible and robust than the existing
jumptable mechanism. It is similar to UNIX syscall approach. See api/README
for more details.
Included is the demo application using this new framework (api_examples).
Please note this is still an experimental feature, and is turned off by
default.
