env: Add support for UBI environment
UBI is a better place for the environment on NAND devices because it
handles wear-leveling and bad blocks.
Gluebi is needed in Linux to access the env as an MTD partition.

+- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI:
+
+ Define this if you have an UBI volume that you want to use for the
+ environment. This has the benefit of wear-leveling the environment
+ accesses, which is important on NAND.
+
+ - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART:
+
+ Define this to a string that is the mtd partition containing the UBI.
+
+ - CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME:
+
+ Define this to the name of the volume that you want to store the
+ environment in.
+
+ - CONFIG_UBI_SILENCE_MSG
+ - CONFIG_UBIFS_SILENCE_MSG
+
+ You will probably want to define these to avoid a really noisy system
+ when storing the env in UBI.
+
- CONFIG_SYS_SPI_INIT_OFFSET
Defines offset to the initial SPI buffer area in DPRAM. The
