nvmem: layouts: u-boot-env: add optional "env-size" property
Some devices reserve a larger NVMEM region for the U-Boot environment
than the actual environment data length used by U-Boot itself. The CRC32
in the U-Boot header is calculated over the smaller data length, causing
CRC validation to fail when Linux reads the full partition.
Allow an optional device tree property "env-size" to specify the
environment data size to use for CRC computation.
v2: add missing $ref line to DT binding
