[PATCH 3/6] nv: Add option to explicitly save nv variables

[Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>]

We now have code to save the nv variables without saving the
rest of the environment. This gives us the possibility to explicitly
save the nv variables. This patch adds an option to the 'nv' command
for this.
