PATCH v3 1/1 board: add support for VIA VAB-820/AMOS-820

From: Gergely Imreh <[email protected]>

The VIA VAB-820 board (and the AMOS-820 system built around it) is based on Freescale i.MX6 for embedded and industrial computing.

Signed-off-by Gergely Imreh <[email protected]>

---
Changes v2 -> v3:
- updated to kernel 3.10.17 (from 3.0.35), and u-boot 2013.04 (from 2009.08) from the latest BSP release
- added minimal patch to enable SD card default boot in updated u-boot
- removed post-build script and environment defaults that used to generate boot script as not needed with the updated u-boot anymore
- updated setup steps and information in readme.txt
- updated defconfig to generate suitable output for the new defaults (device tree and kernel), removed some settings where buildroot defaults now work

Changes v1 -> v2:
- fixed typos on in readme.txt and clarified setup steps
- updated defconfig kernel headers and rootfs settings (suggested by Thomas)
