UBIFS: add R/O compatibility
Now UBIFS is supported by u-boot. If we ever decide to change the
media format, then people will have to upgrade their u-boots to
mount new format images. However, very often it is possible to
preserve R/O forward-compatibility, even though the write
forward-compatibility is not preserved.
This patch introduces a new super-block field which stores the
R/O compatibility version.
