[PATCH] commands: readlink: print to stdout if variable is missing

[Ahmad Fatoum <a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>]

For easier interactive use during debugging or when the shell is
exercised by Labgrid, teach the readlink command to directly output to
stdout instead of an environment variable if none was specified.
