I will change the test to only compare the device tree : it is more simple.

=> v3 in few days

My first approach was complicated but it is to allow
- check if sandbox SPL with devicetree and libfdt in working as is already done for platdata
- check if sandbox SPL can start U-Boot in booth case 
  (by executing the simple test_000_version in ./py/tests/test_000_version.py)
- split test and normal device tree (I move the "spl-tests" nodes in test.dts)

But it is too complicated just the purpose of this test.

NB: the executable "u-boot-spl" for sandbox_spl_defconfig already 
       include the devicetree information, with platdata.
