Rename getenv_r() into getenv_f()
While running from flash, i. e. before relocation, we have only a
limited C runtime environment without writable data segment. In this
phase, some configurations (for example with environment in EEPROM)
must not use the normal getenv(), but a special function. This
function had been called getenv_r(), with the idea that the "_r"
suffix would mean the same as in the _r_eentrant versions of some of
the C library functions (for example getdate vs. getdate_r, getgrent
vs. getgrent_r, etc.).
Unfortunately this was a misleading name, as in U-Boot the "_r"
generally means "running from RAM", i. e. _after_ relocation.
To avoid confusion, rename into getenv_f() [as "running from flash"]
