    mediatek: mt7622: add a second u-boot for redmi-ax6s
    
    The vendor u-boot knows nothing about UBI, and we used to have a
    fixed-size kernel partition for vendor u-boot and UBI for rootfs.
    However, that fixed partition becomes too small eventually, and
    expanding it requires complicated procedure.
    
    This commit changed the flash layout and added a second u-boot
    where the kernel supposed to be.
    Now the vendor u-boot chainloads our mainline u-boot, and our
    u-boot reads kernel+rootfs from UBI, verifies it, and boot
    into OpenWrt.
    
    There are two possible ways to convert from the old fw:
    Flash the factory image using mtd (provided by @rany2):
    
    mount -o remount,ro /
    mount -o remount,ro /overlay
    cd /tmp
    dd if=factory.bin bs=1M count=4 | mtd write - kernel
    dd if=factory.bin bs=1M skip=4 | mtd -r write - ubi
    
    Or, flash the 2nd u-boot via mtd and upload the firmware
    to the 2nd u-boot using tftp:
    
    1. prepare a tftp server at 192.168.1.254 to serve the
       sysupgrade image:
       openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-xiaomi_redmi-router-ax6s-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb
    2. upload the ubi-loader.itb to OpenWrt /tmp, and flash it to
       the old kernel partition:
       mtd -r write openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-xiaomi_redmi-router-ax6s-ubi-loader.itb
    3. The router should reboot and flash the sysupgrade image via TFTP.
    
    Procedure for flashing from vendor firmware shouldn't change.
