We need to have something that is consistent between U-Boot, Barebox
and the kernel. Currently U-Boot has a version selection, the Linux
kernel allows to chose the latest version (but with an option named
after the version itself, so the name of the option changes when the
version changes) or a custom version, and now for Barebox you're
proposing yet another solution: select the latest version (with an
option name that never changes) or a custom version.

So, I'm fine doing changes on this, but they should be consistent
across packages.

Best regards,

Thomas
