Long term, we would like to eliminate include/configs/<board.h> and so
yes, conversion to plain text environment is needed for that to happen.
Is every use case 1:1 supported? No as for example, boards need to move
from "distro boot" (which uses tons of cpp macros that we just can't do
in plain text env) to "standard boot" and while no functionality is
intended to change with that, it's a conversion that requires the
developer to check the result and verify it does what's expected in that
case (boards that don't use "distro boot" for example can be if not
mechanically converted, at least u-boot-initial-env compared
before/after and verified to match).
