Using envtools in Debian/Android

Using envtools to setup envs in Debian/Android OS is very similar in uboot.

Take “eDP+HDMI”for example :

In uboot	In Debian/Android
setenv prmry_screen hdmi-default	fw_setenv prmry_screen hdmi-default
setenv extend_screen edp-1920x1080	fw_setenv extend_screen edp-1920x1080
saveenv
reset	reboot

Note :

The tool "fw_setenv" will save envs automatically in Debian/Android OS, so it isn't necessary to saveen manually.
