Add environment for the date when U-Boot is built

It seems that nobody is ever using this variable, so why add it?

Best regards,

Have other patches in my own u-boot which uses it.
I plan to submit these patches later, but they depend on having other things included.

Then please include this with the first patch that actually uses the feature.

And please make sure to document it.

Hi Ulf.

did you have a look at the CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE option? Even this is something different, it might help you.
