version: Remove global macro U_BOOT_VERSION_STRING from version.h
Version string is available in global variable char version_string[]. Macro U_BOOT_VERSION_STRING is not used by any other file, so remove it completely from version.h. Other files were already converted to use variable version_string[]. Signed-off-by: Pali Rohár <pali@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Tom Rini <trini@konsulko.com>
