port the following barebox commit.

NOTE: This changes barebox-state's default behaviour.

|     state: keep backward compatibility
|
|     Previous 'state' variable set variants do not know and use metadata. The
|     'direct' storage backend's read function honors this, but not its
|     counterpart the write function. This makes an update of the 'state'
|     variable set impossible.
|     This change makes backward compatibility explicit, else it complains in
|     the read function as well. With some more debug output it helps the
|     developer to do things right.
