The device tree overlays are a good way to deal with user-modifyable
boards or boards with some kind of an expansion mechanism where we can
easily plug new board in (like the BBB, the Raspberry Pi or the CHIP).
Add a new function to merge overlays with a base device tree.

A number of style fixes across the files in this directory, including:
* Correct invalid kernel-doc content.
* Tidy up massive comment in fdt_region.c.
* Use correct spelling of "U-Boot".
* Replace tests of "! <var>" with "!<var>".
* Replace "libfdt_env.h" with <libfdt_env.h>.

These have been sent upstream but not accepted to libfdt. For now, bring
these into U-Boot to enable fdtgrep to operate. We will use fdtgrep to
cut device tree files down for SPL.

This brings in changes up to commit f9e91a48 in the libfdt repo.
Mostly this is whitespace/minor changes. But there are a few new
features:
- fdt_size_cells() and fdt_address_cells()
- fdt_resize()

The libfdt read/write functions are now usable enough that it's become a
moderately common pattern to use them to build and manipulate a device
tree from scratch. For example, we do so ourself in our rw_tree1 testcase,
and qemu is starting to use this model when building device trees for some
targets such as e500.
However, the read/write functions require some sort of valid tree to begin
with, so this necessitates either having a trivial canned dtb to begin with
or, more commonly, creating an empty tree using the serial-write functions
first.
This patch adds a helper function which uses the serial-write functions to
create a trivial, empty but complete and valid tree in a supplied buffer,
ready for manipulation with the read/write functions.

From git://git.jdl.com/software/dtc.git patch hash be6026838 with
adaptations to include/libfdt.h and lib/libfdt/Makefile for the U-Boot
environment.

Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils. As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".
This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.
The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o". This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.
This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols. Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.
