per1234 80f51f4c08 Set default values for Arduino AVR Boards upload.verify and program.verify
Arduino AVR Boards 1.6.11 added the {upload.verify} property to the tools.avrdude.upload recipe and {program.verify} to the tools.avrdude.program recipe to support the File > Preferences > Verify code after upload setting.

In Arduino IDE versions 1.6.8 and previous upload.verify is set to true or false depending on the preferences setting which causes Upload to an AVR board with Arduino IDE 1.6.8 or older and Arduino AVR Boards 1.6.11 or newer to generate AVRDUDE commands like:

avrdude -CC:\Users\per\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\arduino\tools\avrdude\6.3.0-arduino2/etc/avrdude.conf -v true -patmega328p -carduino -PCOM21 -b115200 -D -Uflash:w:C:\Users\per\AppData\Local\Temp\buildece560c1024a4a94b7c3b05be61aa2fc.tmp/sketch_sep28a.ino.hex:i

program.verify is unset, which causes Upload Using Programmer to an AVR board with Arduino IDE 1.6.8 or older and Arduino AVR Boards 1.6.11 or newer to generate AVRDUDE commands like:

avrdude -CC:\Users\per\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\arduino\tools\avrdude\6.3.0-arduino6/etc/avrdude.conf -v {program.verify} -patmega328p -cusbasp -Pusb -Uflash:w:C:\Users\per\AppData\Local\Temp\build77ff2e21c5523c5895e8d065447461cb.tmp/sketch_sep28a.ino.hex:i

AVRDUDE 6.0.1 is able to ignore the spurious item in the command and successfully upload but when used with AVRDUDE 6.3.0 this causes upload to fail:

avrdude: no programmer has been specified on the command line or the config file
         Specify a programmer using the -c option and try again

This means that Arduino AVR Boards 1.6.12 and 1.6.14 are not backwards compatible with Arduino IDE 1.6.8 and previous.

Setting a default empty value for the upload.verify and program.verify properties in platform.txt causes Arduino IDE 1.6.8 and older to generate an AVRDUDE command identical to that generated with Arduino AVR Boards 1.6.10 or older(meaning that, as previously, the preferences setting has no effect):

avrdude -CC:\Users\per\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\arduino\tools\avrdude\6.3.0-arduino2/etc/avrdude.conf -v -patmega328p -carduino -PCOM21 -b115200 -D -Uflash:w:C:\Users\per\AppData\Local\Temp\buildece560c1024a4a94b7c3b05be61aa2fc.tmp/sketch_sep28a.ino.hex:i

Arduino IDE 1.6.9 and newer overrides the default values of upload.verify and program.verify, therefore this change has no effect on the AVRDUDE command generated and verification is controlled by the preferences setting as usual.

Tested back to Arduino IDE 1.6.2, the oldest IDE version that supports Boards Manager updates.
