Subject: [RFC PATCH 15/77] Add support for /addon/ keyword

The dts /addon/ keyword allows to mark a dts as an addon dts.

This is similar to /plugin/ used for overlay dts but specific to addon
dts.

It is also worth noting that a dts tagged with /addon/ will lead to a
dtb with the dt_flags set to FDT_FLAG_ADDON (0x1).

This allows to identify without any ambiguity an addon dts and an addon
dtb.
