tftp filesystem support

Handling tftp files has been special in barebox since it needs a special
tftp command. This series implements tftp as a regular filesystem, so no
special handling for tftp anymore.

Unfortunately there is no directory read support in tftp, so a mounted
tftp directory will only show an empty directory, but despite what 'ls'
says the files are really there and can (mostly) be accessed like every
other file. The exception to this is that lseek is not possible on tftp
files which means that bootm needs a quirk.
