[PATCH] commands: go: support passing integer arguments instead of argc/argv

From: Ahmad Fatoum <a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>
Date: 2023-07-21 11:11:29

The go command accepts extra arguments, which are passed through to the
application using two parameters: argc to hold the number of arguments
and argv as a NULL pointer terminated array of pointers to
nul-terminated strings.

As the go command is meant to invoke bare metal applications, it is
useful to be able to pass arguments parsed to integers using the
default calling convention, so add a new -i argument. The old behavior
remains the default and a new -s arguments makes it explicit for
symmetry.

kstrtoul returns error codes and here they could be used to catch some
misusages of the command like accidently passing string arguments
together with the -i option. You should move the call to
shutdown_barebox() further down and catch these errors.
