[PATCH V2 2/4] add multi environment support

We can deal with multiple environments now in our barebox. With this option
enabled barebox will scan all environment partions on start up and load the
environment from the first loadable environment partition it finds. Also it will
check the content of all environment parttions and autmotically synchronize
content of any outdated partition.

V2 Changes:
* fix envfs_load call if the multienv support is disabled
