[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 3/9] GPT: fix error in partitions string doc

From: Alison Chaiken <alison@peloton-tech.com>

The existing partitions-list parsing in cmd/gpt.c passes a value
from gpt_default() to set_gpt_info() that README.gpt suggests
should begin with 'partitions='. Partition-list strings should
in fact begin with 'uuid_disk', as otherwise the call from
set_gpt_info() to extract_val() to find 'uuid_disk' will fail.
Change README.gpt accordingly.

Changes since v6: none.

To restore GUID partition table one needs to:
1. Define partition layout in the environment.
Format of partitions layout:
- "partitions=uuid_disk=...;name=u-boot,size=60MiB,uuid=...;
+ "uuid_disk=...;name=u-boot,size=60MiB,uuid=...;
name=kernel,size=60MiB,uuid=...;"

- "partitions=uuid_disk=${uuid_gpt_disk};name=${uboot_name},
+ "uuid_disk=${uuid_gpt_disk};name=${uboot_name},
size=${uboot_size},uuid=${uboot_uuid};"

The fields 'name' and 'size' are mandatory for every partition.

can specify a other partition type guid:
