short strings can be used in type parameter of gpt command
to replace the guid string for the types known by u-boot
partitions = name=boot,size=0x6bc00,type=data; \
name=root,size=0x7538ba00,type=linux;
gpt write mmc 0 $partitions
and they are also used to display the type of partition
in "part list" command
Partition Map for MMC device 0 -- Partition Type: EFI
Part Start LBA End LBA Name

code under flag CONFIG_PARTITION_TYPE_GUID
add parameter "type" to select partition type guid
example of use with gpt command :
partitions = uuid_disk=${uuid_gpt_disk}; \
name=boot,size=0x6bc00,uuid=${uuid_gpt_boot}; \
name=root,size=0x7538ba00,uuid=${uuid_gpt_root}, \
type=0fc63daf-8483-4772-8e79-3d69d8477de4;
gpt write mmc 0 $partitions

Previously, Linux used the same GUID for the data partitions as Windows
(Basic data partition: EBD0A0A2-B9E5-4433-87C0-68B6B72699C7).
This created problems when dual-booting Linux and Windows in UEFI-GPT
Setup, so a new GUID (Linux filesystem data:
0FC63DAF-8483-4772-8E79-3D69D8477DE4) was defined jointly by GPT fdisk
and GNU Parted developers.

Currently, an environment variable must be used to store the randomly
generated UUID for each partition. This is not necessary, so make storing
the UUID optional. Now passing uuid_disk and uuid are optional when random
UUIDs are enabled.

Check the Backup GPT table if the Primary GPT table is invalid.
Renamed "Secondary GPT" to "Backup GPT" as per:
UEFI Specification (Version 2.3.1, Errata A)

Changes:
- randomly generate partition uuid if any is undefined and CONFIG_RAND_UUID
is defined
- print debug info about set/unset/generated uuid
- update doc/README.gpt
