[POWERPC] bootwrapper: Add CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE
This provides a way to tell the bootwrapper makefile which device tree to include by default. The wrapper can still be invoked standalone to wrap with a different device tree without reconfiguring the kernel, if that is desired. The user will only be asked to provide a device tree if the platform selects CONFIG_WANT_DEVICE_TREE.

+ This specifies the device tree source (.dts) file to be
+ compiled and included when building the bootwrapper. If a
+ relative filename is given, then it will be relative to
+ arch/powerpc/boot/dts. If you are not using the bootwrapper,
+ or do not need to build a dts into the bootwrapper, this
+ field is ignored.
+
+ For example, this is required when building a cuImage target
+ for an older U-Boot, which cannot pass a device tree itself.
+ Such a kernel will not work with a newer U-Boot that tries to
+ pass a device tree (unless you tell it not to). If your U-Boot
+ does not mention a device tree in "help bootm", then use the
+ cuImage target and specify a device tree here. Otherwise, use
+ the uImage target and leave this field blank.
