For most boards, the device-tree compiler is built in-tree, ignoring the
system version. Add a special option to skip this build. This can be
useful when the system dtc is up-to-date, as it speeds up the build.

Buildman retries a failed build when processing a branch, but does not
do this when building current source. It is useful to do this retry in
both cases, so add the logic for it.

There are operations in buildman that result in running the cross-tools
(such as performing size checks) and now that we have not modified PATH
to know where our tools are, these operations fail.
This reverts commit 6c0a3cf75f.

The feature to set the toolchain path does not seem to be needed. It
causes problems with venv (see [1]). Let's remove it.
Add some tests while we are here.
It does not look like any docs changes are needed for this.

When a file is removed by a commit (e.g. include/common.h yay!) it can
cause incremental build failures since one of the dependency files from
a previous build may mention the file.
Add an option to run 'make mrproper' automatically when a build fails.
This can be used to automatically resolve the problem, without always
adding the large overhead of 'make mrproper' to every build.

When this flag is enabled, 'make mrproper' is always used when
reconfiguring, so there is no point in doing it again.

The patman directory has a number of modules which are used by other tools
in U-Boot. This makes it hard to package the tools using pypi since the
common files must be copied along with the tool that uses them.
To address this, move these files into a new u_boot_pylib library. This
can be packaged separately and listed as a dependency of each tool.

This is quite a useful thing to use when building since it avoids small
size changes between commits. Add a -r flag for it.
Also undefine CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO since this appends the git hash
to the version string, causing every build to be slightly different.

Buildman should consider a build as a success (with warnings) if missing
blobs have been dealt with by binman, even though buildman itself returns
and error code overall. This is how other warnings are dealt with.
We cannot easily access the 103 exit code, so detect the problem in the
output.
With this change, missing blobs result in an exit code of 101, although
they still indicate failure.

We have a module called 'board'. Sometimes buildman uses 'brd' as an
instance variable but sometimes it uses 'board', which is confusing and
can mess with the module handling. Update the code to use 'brd'
consistently, making it easier for tools to determine when the module
is being referenced.

Add a -a option to specify changes to the config before the build
commences. For example
buildman -a ~CONFIG_CMDLINE
disables CONFIG_CMDLINE before doing the build.
This makes it easier to try things out as well as to write tests without
creating a new board or manually manging the .config file.

At present buildman does not write any output (to the 'out' and 'err)
files if the build terminates with a fatal error. This is to avoid adding
lots of spam to the logs.
However there are times when this is actually useful, such as when the
build fails for an obscure reason such as a Kconfig loop.
Update the logic to always write the output, so that the user gets a clue
as to what is happening.

At present we sometimes see problems in gitlab where the environment has
0x80 characters or sequences which are not valid UTF-8.
Avoid this by using bytes for the environment, both internal to buildman

as expected.

There have been at least a few cases where an exception has occurred in a
