[U-Boot] [PATCH v2] sunxi: Add a bootcmd_sunxi_compat to the default environment to boot old kernels

[Hans de Goede]

Add a bootcmd_sunxi_compat value to the default environment when building
with CONFIG_OLD_SUNXI_KERNEL_COMPAT, this way people who occasionally want
to boot an old kernel can do so by simply typing "run bootcmd_sunxi_compat"
rather then needing to have 2 separate setups / sdcards for old and
new kernels.

Changes in v2:
-Rename env variable from bootcmd_old to bootcmd_sunxi_compat
-Set the default root environment value used from the bootcmd_sunxi_compat
 script rather then polluting the default environment with a "root" value
