dt-bindings: mtd: partitions: add binding for U-Boot bootloader

Right now there is no (known) real reason for a custom binding for
standard U-Boot partitions. Broadcom's U-Boot however requires extra
handling - looking for environment variables subblocks. This commit adds
Broadcom specific binding.
