Stefan Agner f4742ca0fb tools/env: allow negative offsets
A negative value for the offset is treated as a backwards offset for
from the end of the device/partition for block devices. This aligns
the behavior of the config file with the syntax of CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET
where the functionality has been introduced with
commit 5c088ee841 ("env_mmc: allow negative CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET").

# Configuration file for fw_(printenv/setenv) utility.
# Up to two entries are valid, in this case the redundant
# environment sector is assumed present.
# Notice, that the "Number of sectors" is not required on NOR and SPI-dataflash.
# Futhermore, if the Flash sector size is omitted, this value is assumed to
# be the same as the Environment size, which is valid for NOR and SPI-dataflash
# Device offset must be prefixed with 0x to be parsed as a hexadecimal value.
# NOR example
# MTD device name Device offset Env. size Flash sector size Number of sectors
/dev/mtd1 0x0000 0x4000 0x4000
/dev/mtd2 0x0000 0x4000 0x4000
# MTD SPI-dataflash example
# MTD device name Device offset Env. size Flash sector size Number of sectors
#/dev/mtd5 0x4200 0x4200
#/dev/mtd6 0x4200 0x4200
# NAND example
#/dev/mtd0 0x4000 0x4000 0x20000 2
# On a block device a negative offset is treated as a backwards offset from the
# end of the device/partition, rather than a forwards offset from the start.
# Block device example
#/dev/mmcblk0 0xc0000 0x20000
#/dev/mmcblk0 -0x20000 0x20000
# VFAT example
#/boot/uboot.env 0x0000 0x4000
