[PATCH v2] remove libfdt

[Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>]

In the beginning we only had libfdt to handle devicetrees. With
devicetree probing support we gained two parallel universes for
handling devicetrees. This series cleans this up by switching to
the internal devicetree completely and removing libfdt.

The dtb format is now only used while flattening/unflattening
the tree. All tree manipulation is done on the internal tree
format only. This introduces some time overhead (~2ms on a i.MX51)
needed for (un)flattening the tree, but actually manipulating
the tree is a factor of about 50 faster compared to libfdt.
This means the overhead can become more than compensated once
we start manipulating the tree in more places.

The overall code and binary size becomes a bit smaller with
this due to less duplicated code.

Changes since v1:

- rebase on current master
- add of_write_number helper and use it
- add reserve map handling
- add initrd handling for ARM
