[U-Boot] [RFC PATCH] patman: add distutils based installer

[Chris Packham]

To make it easier to use patman on other projects add a distutils style
installer. Now patman can be installed with

  cd u-boot/tools/patman && python setup.py install

There are also the usual distutils options for creating source/binary
distributions of patman.

I've been playing with using patman for Linux development and it
occurred to me that patman should really be something that lives on my
default $PATH.

It's simple enough to create a distutils configuration that makes this a
reality.

One thing that would make sense for this is to make patman a python
package to avoid polluting site-packages with generic names like 'test'
and 'command'. With a little restructuring it would probably be possible
to setup something that works both as an installable package and in-tree
as it does today. But before I go down that path I wanted to see if
there was a desire for such packaging or do people just add
u-boot/tools/patman to their $PATH.

Thanks,
Chris
