fdt: Introduce helper method fdt_overlay_apply_verbose()
Introduce fdt_overlay_apply_verbose, a method that applies an
overlay but in the case of an error produces a helpful message.
In addition if a base tree is found to be missing the __symbols__
node the message will point out that the probable reason is that
the base tree was miscompiled without the -@ option.
