commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=35c040d1abc894a0f1eb9cb157087949223b4642
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

The original UBOOT_FIXUP_LIBFDT_INCLUDE hook only works for u-boot versions
starting from v2017.11.

As older u-boot versions are still in common use today, e.g. in the
ci20_defconfig, extend the hook to cover a wider range of u-boot versions.

The main code change was proposed by Arnout Vandecappelle in [1].
Testing and comment changes were done by Thomas De Schampheleire.
Additional (build) testing done by Yann.

[1] http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2019-May/251231.html

This was tested with the following defconfigs, that each excercise one
case:

    2010.06     'lib/libfdt/', used to be simply 'libfdt' before upstream commit 0de71d507157...

+# Fixup inclusion of libfdt headers, which can fail in older u-boot versions

+# The core change is equivalent to upstream commit
+# e0d20dc1521e74b82dbd69be53a048847798a90a (first in v2018.03). However, the fixup
+# is complicated by the fact that the underlying u-boot code changed multiple
+# times in history:
+# - The directory scripts/dtc/libfdt only exists since upstream commit
+#   c0e032e0090d6541549b19cc47e06ccd1f302893 (first in v2017.11). For earlier
+#   versions, create a dummy scripts/dtc/libfdt directory with symlinks for the
+#   fdt-related files. This allows to use the same -I<path> option for both
+#   cases.
+# - The variable 'srctree' used to be called 'SRCTREE' before upstream commit
+#   01286329b27b27eaeda045b469d41b1d9fce545a (first in v2014.04).
+# - The original location for libfdt, 'lib/libfdt/', used to be simply
+#   'libfdt' before upstream commit 0de71d507157c4bd4fddcd3a419140d2b986eed2
+#   (first in v2010.06). Make the 'lib' part optional in the substitution to
+#   handle this.
