Update bootloader binary blobs to support USB boot
Update Broadcom bootloader binaries so booting from a USB stick is
possible.
Enable UART in latest firmware
Without this we do not have serial connection and even u-boot behaves
strangely.
Change serial console from ttyAMA0 to ttyS0
ttyS0 is these days the correct one. However, the bootloader changes
silently the name in the final command line, so this went unnoticed.
Make uboot load config from USB if there is no SD
Make uboot load configuration from USB in the cases where there is no
SD, if present. Add instruction on how to build u-boot if needed.
