By default, the UBI FS target creates a ubinize configuration
file on-the-fly, for a single volume.  Add an option to specify
a custom config file.

E.g., one might want to deploy a system with a volume for the
built ubifs image, a volume for a future upgrade image, and a
volume for user data.

v1 -> v2:
Amplify help text in Config.in
Move location of temporary config file to $(BUILD_DIR)
Use sed to replace BR2_ROOTFS_UBIFS_PATH in cfg with ubifs image path
Use BR2_ROOTFS_UBIFS_PATH in default config file to simplify config file treatment.
