This increases ARRAY_SIZE(imx8mp_variants) to 3...

... so this doesn't trigger anymore for the still invalid variant 2.

Better make the basic variant a separate initializer outside of the
imx8mp_variants array. That also gets you rid of the "keep last" comment
above.

variant_id is written to the /chosen/skov,imx8mp-board-version property.
This looks wrong for the "basic" variant as this is not a fixed number
but instead depends on the highest number the bootloader knows (which
might be different from the last variant_id userspace knows).
