At present U-Boot always builds dtc if CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is defined, even
when DTC is provided. The built dtc is not actually used, so this is a
waste of time.
Update the Makefile logic to build dtc only if one is not provided to the
build with the DTC variable. Add documentation to explain this.
This saves about 3.5 seconds of elapsed time on a clean build of
sandbox_spl for me.

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 makes us act like the Linux Kernel does and allow for dtc to be
provided externally but otherwise we use the version of dtc that is
included in the sources. This in turn means that we can drop the
checkdtc logic. We select DTC in the cases where we will need the dtc
tool provided.

This feature is inspired by /proc/config.gz of Linux. In Linux,
if CONFIG_IKCONFIG is enabled, the ".config" file contents are
embedded in the kernel image. If CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC is also
enabled, the ".config" contents are exposed to /proc/config.gz.
Users can do "zcat /proc/config.gz" to check which config options
are enabled on the running kernel image.
The idea is almost the same here; if CONFIG_CMD_CONFIG is enabled,
the ".config" contents are compressed and saved in the U-Boot image,
then printed by the new command "config".
The usage is quite simple. Enable CONFIG_CMD_CONFIG, then run
> config
from the command line interface. The ".config" contents will be
printed on the console.
This feature increases the U-Boot image size by about 4KB (this is
mostly due to the gzip-compressed .config file). By default, it is
enabled only for Sandbox because we do not care about the memory
footprint on it. Of course, this feature is architecture agnostic,
so you can enable it on any board if the image size increase is
acceptable for you.

After consulting with some of the SPDX team, the conclusion is that
Makefiles are worth adding SPDX-License-Identifier tags too, and most of
ours have one. This adds tags to ones that lack them and converts a few
that had full (or in one case, very partial) license blobs into the
equivalent tag.

This commit enables Kconfig.
Going forward, we use Kconfig for the board configuration.
mkconfig will never be used. Nor will include/config.mk be generated.
Kconfig must be adjusted for U-Boot because our situation is
a little more complicated than Linux Kernel.
We have to generate multiple boot images (Normal, SPL, TPL)
from one source tree.
Each image needs its own configuration input.
Usage:
Run "make <board>_defconfig" to do the board configuration.
It will create the .config file and additionally spl/.config, tpl/.config
if SPL, TPL is enabled, respectively.
You can use "make config", "make menuconfig" etc. to create
a new .config or modify the existing one.
Use "make spl/config", "make spl/menuconfig" etc. for spl/.config
and do likewise for tpl/.config file.
The generic syntax of configuration targets for SPL, TPL is:
<target_image>/<config_command>
Here, <target_image> is either 'spl' or 'tpl'
<config_command> is 'config', 'menuconfig', 'xconfig', etc.
When the configuration is done, run "make".
(Or "make <board>_defconfig all" will do the configuration and build
in one time.)
For futher information of how Kconfig works in U-Boot,
please read the comment block of scripts/multiconfig.py.
By the way, there is another item worth remarking here:
coexistence of Kconfig and board herder files.
Prior to Kconfig, we used C headers to define a set of configs.
We expect a very long term to migrate from C headers to Kconfig.
Two different infractructure must coexist in the interim.
In our former configuration scheme, include/autoconf.mk was generated
for use in makefiles.
It is still generated under include/, spl/include/, tpl/include/ directory
for the Normal, SPL, TPL image, respectively.

tools/kernel-doc/docproc.c and tools/kernel-doc/kernel-doc are
files imported from Linux Kernel.
They originally resided under scripts/ directory in Linux Kernel.
This commit moves them to the original location.

This commit refactors cleaning targets such as
clean, clobber, mrpropper, distclean
with scripts/Makefile.clean.
By using scripts/Makefile.clean, we can recursively descend
into subdirectories and delete generated files there.
We do not need add a big list of generated files
to the "clean" target.
