If the user has specified a custom U-Boot repository, he may also want
to use it for U-Boot tools.

This could be usefull in two identified use case:
  - User want the same version for U-Boot tools and U-Boot
  - User has modified U-Boot tools in his U-Boot repository

Changes v2 -> v3:
    - Add a help on the choice option to warn users on the minimal
      version needed for U-Boot
Changes v1 -> v2:
    - Add a choice option (Suggested by Luca Ceresoli)
    - Add an if/then/else structure (Suggested by Luca Ceresoli)
    - Take UBOOT_LICENSE and UBOOT_LICENCE_FILES into account (Suggested
      by Arnout Vandecappelle)
