uboot: use local fdt headers

Browse Source 
After commit b8c3e94173 ("package/dtc: qemu system build need libfdt")
changed the dtc install target from 'install-bin' to 'install', uboot
compilation failures occurred because libfdt related headers were now
suddenly taken from output/host/include rather than from the uboot sources
itself.

Commit 3a6573ccee ("uboot: use local libfdt.h") solved this by patching
one specific uboot source file, tools/fdtgrep.c, to replace '<...>'-style
includes by '"..."'-style includes.

However, depending on the uboot version, this may not be enough: there may
be other references to fdt header files. In particular taking into account
that it is not uncommon to have vendor-provided uboot trees which have
custom changes.

The root of the problem is that the uboot.mk file passes the host compiler
as follows:
	UBOOT_MAKE_OPTS += \
		...
		HOSTCC="$(HOSTCC) $(HOST_CFLAGS)" \
		...
where HOST_CFLAGS contains the string '-I$(HOST_DIR)/include'
The uboot makefiles then use constructs of the form:
	$(CC) $(CPPFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) .....
where CPPFLAGS may contain -I references pointing to local directories.

On the expanded compiler command-line, Buildroot's '-I$(HOST_DIR)/include'
is thus present _before_ any -I to local directories, and thus takes
precedence.  And that becomes a problem for header files present both
locally as in the Buildroot host directory, which is the case for libfdt.

To fix this problem without having to patch u-boot sources, use '-idirafter'
rather than '-I' to pass the Buildroot host include directory. '-idirafter'
is basically the same thing, but adds the specified directory at the end
of the include precedence chain, rather than at the beginning.
