README: Document CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG
This option is intended to be set by boards which will set the board_name and board_rev environment variables. These are to be used when the U-Boot binary can support more than one board type at run-time and the user needs an easy way (for example for scripting to determine what device tree to load) to determine what board they are on.
