Add new target feature 'dt-overlay' which makes DTC keep the symbol
names in the generated dtb.
Make sure additional DT overlay sources specified by the new device
variable DEVICE_DTS_OVERLAY get compiled together with the main DTS
(currently overlays got to be in the same folder). Let Build/fit pass
the generated DT overlay blobs to mkits.sh.

Instead of embedding the initrd cpio archive into the kernel, allow
for having an external ramdisk added to the FIT or uImage.
This is useful to overcome kernel size limitations present in many
stock bootloaders, as the ramdisk is then loaded seperately and doesn't
add to the kernel size. Hence we can have larger ramdisks to host ie.
installers with all binaries to flash included (or a web-based
firmware selector).
In terms of performance and total size the differences are neglectible.

Allow for single (external-data) FIT image to hold kernel, dtb and
squashfs. In that way, the bootloader verifies the system integrity
including the rootfs, because what's the point of checking that the
hash of the kernel is correct if it won't boot in case of squashfs
being corrupted? Better allow bootloader to check everything needed
to make it at least up to failsafe mode. As a positive side effect
this change also makes the sysupgrade process on nand potentially
much easier as it is now.
In short: mkimage has a parameter '-E' which allows generating FIT
images with 'external' data rather than embedding the data into the
device-tree blob itself. In this way, the FIT structure itself remains
small and can be parsed easily (rather than having to page around
megabytes of image content). This patch makes use of that and adds
support for adding sub-images of type 'filesystem' which are used to
store the squashfs. Now U-Boot can verify the whole OS and the new
partition parsers added in the Linux kernel can detect the filesystem
sub-images, create partitions for them, and select the active rootfs
volume based on the configuration in FIT (passing configuration via
device tree could be implemented easily at a later stage).
This new FIT partition parser works for NOR flash (on top of mtdblock),
NAND flash (on top of ubiblock) as well as classic block devices
(ie. eMMC, SDcard, SATA, NVME, ...).
It could even be used to mount such FIT images via `losetup -P` on a
user PC if this patch gets included in Linux upstream one day ;)

Allow a device recipe to specify a custom UIMAGE_MAGIC value, as used by
OpenWrt's -M flag for mkimage. This allows to automatically customize
the magic bytes in all calls to Build/uImage for this device, similar to
the behaviour of UIMAGE_NAME. Since the -M argument is inserted before
the user arguments, it can be overriden.
The following example would use 0x87654321 for the KERNEL image, but
0x12345678 for the KERNEL_INITRAMFS image:
define Device/MyDevice
UIMAGE_MAGIC := 0x87654321
KERNEL := ... | uImage lzma
KERNEL_INITRAMFS := ... | uImage lzma -M 0x12345678
...

For some build recipes, the argument to Build/uImage is used to sneak in
extra arguments for mkimage, whereas this appears to have been intended
to specificy the compression method only.
Use the first provided word for -C to be backwards compatible with
current calls to Build/uImage. Use the rest of the call arguments to
override the provided defaults. Only the input file name (-d) and the
output file name cannot overriden.

The mips kernel vmlinux image supports adding an empty ELF section
for DTB to be later inserted into with MIPS_ELF_APPENDED_DTB.
This ELF + inserted DTB image can then be directly booted on some
devices.
Example usage:
image/subtarget.mk:
KERNEL_NAME := vmlinux.elf
KERNEL_INITRAMFS_NAME := vmlinux-initramfs.elf
KERNEL := kernel-bin | append-dtb-elf

Some bootloaders are really keen on just one special
fdt in a multi-image fit image. This is a problem, because
currently this is fixed to "fdt@1".
This patch introduces a new device variable:
DEVICE_FDT_NUM that allows to specify the right
fdt number.
If the value is absent "1" will be chosen.

The recipe check-kernel-size is not used in the entire tree. Instead,
we already check the size of the kernel image in Device/Build/kernel
in image.mk via check-size function if KERNEL_SIZE is defined.
Therefore, drop the function. Using it would be redundant anyway.
