Some devices keep 2 copies of the bootloader_message in the misc
partition and write each in sequence when updating. This ensures that
there is always one valid copy of the bootloader_message. Teach u-boot
to optionally try a backup bootloader_message from a specified offset if
the primary one fails its CRC check.

It is is sometimes desired to be able to skip decrementing the number of
tries remaining in an Android A/B boot, and instead just check which
slot will be tried later. This can commonly be be the case for platforms
that want to A/B u-boot itself, but are required to boot from a FAT MBR
partition. In these cases, u-boot must do an early check that the MBR
points to the correct A/B boot partition, and if not rewrite the MBR to
point to the correct one and reboot. Decrementing the try count in this
case is not desired because it means that each u-boot might constantly
ping-pong overwriting the MBR and rebooting until all the retries are
used up.

Quite a lot of the code in common/relates to booting and images. Before
adding more it seems like a good time to move the code into its own
directory.
Most files with 'boot' or 'image' in them are moved, except:
- autoboot.c which relates to U-Boot automatically running a script
- bootstage.c which relates to U-Boot timing
Drop the removal of boot* files from the output directory, since this
interfers with the symlinks created by tools and there does not appear
to be any such file from my brief testing.
