spl: nand: support redundant u-boot image
On modern NAND it's more than recommended to have a backup copy of the u-boot binary to recover from corruption: bitflips are quite common on MLC NANDs, and the read-disturbance will corrupt your u-boot partitition more quickly than what you would see on an SLC NAND. Add an extra Kconfig option to specify the offset of the redundant u-boot image.
