The distutils package is deprecated. The upstream libfdt repo uses
setuptools for building the pylibfdt module, so bring in that code,
suitably modified for U-Boot. Also bring in the README.
The modifications include setting the version correctly, making use of
the environment variables provided by the Makefile and various tweaks
to the directories.
Note that the version omits the minus character at the start of
EXTRAVERSION, since this creates a warning. The build is really just used
within U-Boot itself, so it doesn't matter too much if the version matches
upstream, or exactly matches U-Boot.

All of these host tools are apparently written for Python2,
not Python3.
Use 'python2' in the shebang line according to PEP 394
(https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/).

The pylibfdt is used by dtoc (and, indirectly by binman), but there
is no reason why it must be generated in the tools/ directory.
Recently, U-Boot switched over to the bundled DTC, and the directory
structure under scripts/dtc/ now mirrors the upstream DTC project.
So, scripts/dtc/pylibfdt is the best location.
I also rewrote the Makefile in a cleaner Kbuild style.
The scripts from the upstream have been moved as follows:
lib/libfdt/pylibfdt/setup.py -> scripts/dtc/pylibfdt/setup.py
lib/libfdt/pylibfdt/libfdt.i -> scripts/dtc/pylibfdt/libfdt.i_shipped
The .i_shipped is coped to .i during building because the .i must be
located in the objtree when we build it out of tree.
