At present each entry has an offset within its parent section. This is
useful for figuring out how entries relate to one another. However it
is sometimes necessary to locate an entry within an image, regardless
of which sections it is nested inside.
Add a new 'image-pos' property to provide this information. Also add
some documentation for the -u option binman provides, which updates the
device tree with final entry information.
Since the image position is a better symbol to use for the position of
U-Boot as obtained by SPL, update the SPL symbols to use this instead of
offset, which might be incorrect if hierarchical sections are used.

After some thought, I believe there is an unfortunate naming flaw in
binman. Entries have a position and size, but now that we support
hierarchical sections it is unclear whether a position should be an
absolute position within the image, or a relative position within its
parent section.
At present 'position' actually means the relative position. This indicates
a need for an 'image position' for code that wants to find the location of
an entry without having to do calculations back through parents to
discover this image position.
A better name for the current 'position' or 'pos' is 'offset'. It is not
always an absolute position, but it is always an offset from its parent
offset.
It is unfortunate to rename this concept now, 18 months after binman was
introduced. However I believe it is the right thing to do. The impact is
mostly limited to binman itself and a few changes to in-tree users to
binman:
tegra
sunxi
x86
The change makes old binman definitions (e.g. downstream or out-of-tree)
incompatible if they use the 'pos = <...>' property. Later work will
adjust binman to generate an error when it is used.

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.
In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.
This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

This patch is a preparation for adding TPL support for RAM loading.
CONFIG_IS_ENABLED allows for proper handling of the U-Boot/SPL/TPL
differences in config symbol names.

Thomas reported U-Boot failed to build host tools if libfdt-devel
package is installed because tools include libfdt headers from
/usr/include/ instead of using internal ones.
This commit moves the header code:
include/libfdt.h -> include/linux/libfdt.h
include/libfdt_env.h -> include/linux/libfdt_env.h
and replaces include directives:
#include <libfdt.h> -> #include <linux/libfdt.h>
#include <libfdt_env.h> -> #include <linux/libfdt_env.h>

SPL supports reading U-Boot from a RAM location. At present this is
hard-coded to the U-Boot text base address. Use binman to allow this to
come from the image file, if binman is used.

Add a new top-level config option so support booting an image stored
in RAM. This allows to move the RAM boot support into a sparate file
and having a single condition to compile that file.
