arm: mvebu: Espressobin: Fix default env variables
Default env variables on Espressobin boards are broken since commit
c4df0f6f315c
("arm: mvebu: Espressobin: Set default value for $fdtfile env variable") as well
as the 'env default -a' command.
The algorithm to find free space in the default_environment[] array returns
after the first env variable instead of the correct position of the last
variable, where there is allocated free space.
This causes that U-Boot board_late_init() function to overwrite a portion of the
default environment with $ethXaddr and $fdtfile variables immediately after the
first env variable and so it is overwriting other variables.
This patch also adds an additional null byte to terminate the environment array.
But U-Boot board_late_init() function do not fill this nul byte explicitly. And
because of that, U-Boot is later trying to interpret remaining buffer as a
continuation of variable list. Normally buffer should be empty but due to the
above issue, it contains garbage from remaining env variables.
For example 'env default -a' command results in damaging variable names. It was
observed that scritaddr variable name was changed to criptaddr (without leading
's').
This bug was reported and discussed on the Armbian forum:

Fix these issues in two steps:
1) Change code which finds free space for dynamic env variables in
default_environment[] array by jumping to the end of the variable list instead
of jumping after the first defined variable. [By Derek]
2) Add code which appends terminating nul byte as indication of the end of the
env list, after the last nul term env string. [By Pali]
