[U-Boot] [PATCH] cmd/fdt: support single value replacement within an array

[Hannes Schmelzer]

With this commit we can modify single values within an array of a dts
property.

This is useful if we have for example a pwm-backlight where we want to
modifiy the pwm frequency per u-boot script.

The pwm is described in dts like this:

backlight {
	pwms = <0x0000002b 0x00000000 0x004c4b40>;
};

For changing the frequency, here the 3rd parameter, we simply type:

fdt set /backlight pwms <? ? 0x1E8480>;

For doing all this we:
- backup the property content into our 'SCRATCHPAD'
- only modify the array-cell if the new content doesn't start with '?'
