This reverts commit "dt: temporarily disable subtree creation
failure check" which was meant as a temporary solution to keep
external and dynamic device tree construction intact.
Now that we switched to fully dynamic dt construction, it's no
longer necessary.

Some times in the device tree, we find an array of 2 u32 cells that
really are a single u64 value. This patch adds a helper to make the
creation of these easy.

Phandle references work by having 2 pieces:
- a "phandle" 1-cell property in the device tree node
- a reference to the same value in a property we want to point
to the other node
To generate the 1-cell property, we need an allocation mechanism that
gives us a unique number space. This patch adds an allocator for these
properties.

We want to get rid of the concept of loading an external device tree and instead
generate our own. However, to do this we need to also create a device tree
template programatically.
This patch adds a helper to create an empty device tree in memory.

This patch adds a helper to search for a node's phandle by its path. This
is especially useful when the phandle is part of an array, not just a single
cell in which case qemu_devtree_setprop_phandle would be the easy choice.

Usually we want to know when creating a subtree fails. However, while
introducing this patch set we have to modify the device tree and some
times have the code to create a subtree in both the binary tree and
the dynamically created tree.
So ignore failures about this for now and enable them once we got rid
of the binary device tree.

Phandles are the fancy device tree name for "pointer to another node".
To create a phandle property, we most likely want to reference to the
node we're pointing to by its path. So create a helper that allows
us to do so.

Our subnode creation helper can't handle creation of root subnodes,
like "/memory". Fix this by allowing the parent node to be an empty
string, indicating the root node.

We currently load a device tree blob and then just take its size x2 to
account for modifications we do inside. While this is nice and great,
it fails when we have a small device tree as blob and lots of nodes added
in machine init code.
So for now, just make it 20k bigger than it was before. We maybe want to
be more clever about this later.

When we screw up and issue an FDT command that doesn't work, we really need to
know immediately and usually can't continue to create the machine. To make sure
we don't need to add error checking in all device tree modification code users,
we can just add the fail checks to the qemu abstract functions.

We want to be able to create subnodes in our device tree, so export it through
the qemu device tree abstraction framework.

We have a qemu internal abstraction layer on FDT. While I'm not fully convinced
we need it at all, it's missing the nop_node functionality that we now need
on e500. So let's add it and think about the general future of that API later.

Currently qemu_devtree_setprop() expects the new property value to be
given as a uint32_t *. While property values consisting of u32s are
common, in general they can have any bytestring value.
Therefore, this patch alters the function to take a void * instead,
allowing callers to easily give anything as the property value.

To implement the -kernel, -initrd, and -append options, 4xx board emulation
must load the guest kernel as if firmware had loaded it. Where u-boot would be
the firmware, we must load the flat device tree into memory and set key fields
such as /chosen/bootargs.
This patch introduces a dependency on libfdt for flat device tree support.
