Some commands can get very unweildy if they have too many positional
arguments. Adding options makes them easier to read, remember, and
understand.
This implementation of getopt has been taken from barebox, which has had
option support for quite a while. I have made a few modifications to their
version, such as the removal of opterr in favor of a separate getopt_silent
function. In addition, I have moved all global variables into struct
getopt_context.
The getopt from barebox also re-orders the arguments passed to it so that
non-options are placed last. This allows users to specify options anywhere.
For example, `ls -l foo/ -R` would be re-ordered to `ls -l -R foo/` as
getopt parsed the options. However, this feature conflicts with the const
argv in cmd_tbl->cmd. This was originally added in 54841ab50c ("Make sure
that argv[] argument pointers are not modified."). The reason stated in
that commit is that hush requires argv to stay unmodified. Has this
situation changed? Barebox also uses hush, and does not have this problem.
Perhaps we could use their fix?
I have assigned maintenance of getopt to Simon Glass, as it is currently
only used by the log command. I would also be fine maintaining it.

This patch series adds support for ZFS listing and load to u-boot.
To Enable zfs ls and load commands, modify the board specific config file with
#define CONFIG_CMD_ZFS
Steps to test:
1. After applying the patch, zfs specific commands can be seen
in the boot loader prompt using
UBOOT #help
zfsload- load binary file from a ZFS file system
zfsls - list files in a directory (default /)
2. To list the files in zfs pool, device or partition, execute
zfsls <interface> <dev[:part]> [POOL/@/dir/file]
For example:
UBOOT #zfsls mmc 0:5 /rpool/@/usr/bin/
3. To read and load a file from an ZFS formatted partition to RAM, execute
zfsload <interface> <dev[:part]> [addr] [filename] [bytes]
For example:
UBOOT #zfsload mmc 2:2 0x30007fc0 /rpool/@/boot/uImage
