This defconfig fails to build with gcc 6.x, even though we switched to
using gcc 6.x as the default gcc version in May 2017.
This defconfig also hasn't seen any non-mechanical update since
November 2015.
So it's time to get rid of it, in order to remove the following build
failure:

MX6 has a Cortex-A9 core, which supports NEON and VFP.
Add support for them.

Since quite some time, the kernel and bootloader communities consider
zImage as the default format for kernel images on ARM, replacing
uImage. The load address information in uImage is no longer needed,
since the kernel is position-independent in terms of physical address,
except on a few old platforms. For most people, using zImage is simply
better/simpler, so let's switch to zImage as the default image format
on ARM.
All defconfigs are updated: 46 defconfigs no longer need to select
explicitly zImage because it's the default, and 16 defconfigs now need
to explicitly select uImage because that's no longer the default.

Similar to the issue with the Atmel A5 based boards, the VFP is optional on
A9 - So we need to enable it to be able to use EABIhf.

For most defconfigs, it was trivial to deduce the kernel version, by
just reading the version string, which could be:
- a standard upstream version string vX.Y.Z
- a non-standard version string, but still containg the standard X.Y.Z
Those for which it was not so trivial were those hosted on git tree.
Since most were already using a custom linux-headers version, it could
be easily deduced from that. It was confirmed by browsing said git trees
and check the version there.
There are a few cases were there was a mismatch:
- microzed: uses a 3.18 kernel, but 3.8 headers; fixed.
- xilinx_zc706: uses a 3.14 kernel, but 3.8 headers; fixed.
- zedboard: uses a 3.18 kernel, but 3.8 headers; fixed.

Use custom version for U-Boot, instead of using the default value as defined
in BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_VERSION.

This is a small development board, based on Freescale IMX6 Solo SoC
(single core ARM Cortex-A9). The board has excellent support in mainline
U-Boot and Linux.
