CONFIG_API is needed for u-boot apps such as grub2, so enable it for distro config.

This breaks a number of boards that have opted in to the distro config. The full list is: whistler trimslice beaver tec paz00 ventana cardhu harmony dalmore plutux medcom-wide rpi_b venice2 colibri_t20_iris tec-ng seaboard
Hmm. That's all or most Tegra boards. What's the break?
That said, I wonder why we need CONFIG_API in the distro config; the purpose of that config is to allow the "pxe" and "sysboot" commands not to work. If we start supporting all kinds of other random boot mechanisms, we'll just end up with a fragmented mess, rather than a unified boot mechanism.
It's to add grub2, as Rob says :)
Right, but why should that be part of the standard distro config, which isn't Grub2, but rather pxe/sysboot?
