u-boot: rename u-boot_git.bb to u-boot_${PV}.bb
In order to facilitate reuse of the oe-core u-boot recipe, there needs to be
some assurance that the oe-core version won't change without a clear indicator
to people extending it.
By renaming the recipe to include its version string instead of "git", BSP
layers can extend a specific base version of u-boot, ie.
u-boot_2011.03.bbappend. When 2011.06 becomes available, we can create that file
without instantly breaking all the BSPs depending on oe-core version of the
recipe.
As a matter of policy I would recommend we not carry more than 2 versioned
u-boot recipess at any given time. This will provide BSP layers time to migrate
to the newer version, without cluttering oe-core with numerous stale versions of
u-boot. We may decide later to resurrect u-boot_git.bb as an AUTOREV recipe to
faciliate upstream development on u-boot in the oe environment.
