Some boards for production u-boot have all the envs hardcoded in
their ./include/configs/<board>.h file.
Also, they support envs stored on persistent memory - like eMMC.
During flashing both u-boot and envs are stored on the target memory.
Such script allows having the same data in both places.
I do know that I could also use external file, which I could include to
u-boot during compilation and compile the boot.scr file with mkimage.
Or maybe there is any other way?
