[PATCH] scripts/Makefile.dts: tweak logic for deciding which dtbs to build

The idea in 3609e1dc5f4d (dts: automatically build necessary .dtb
files) was fine, but the implementation was suboptimal due to some
misunderstandings on my part (and possibly defects in some defconfig
files):
- Sometimes DEFAULT_DEVICE_TREE is not included in OF_LIST or
SPL_OF_LIST
- SPL_OF_LIST is not always a subset of OF_LIST
- While SPL_OF_LIST governs the list of dtbs relevant to SPL (i.e.,
may be built into an
SPL-with-bunch-of-dtbs-to-choose-between-at-runtime), those dtbs are
not actually _built_ during the SPL build phase, i.e. when $(SPL_)
would expand to SPL_. fdtgrep runs on the artifacts produced during
the ordinary U-Boot build.
Tweak the logic so that we simply add the union of all dtbs mentioned
in either DEFAULT_DEVICE_TREE, OF_LIST and SPL_OF_LIST to dtb-y. That
should, for real, ensure that we always build all the dtbs that is
relevant to the current board, and should in turn enable us to
massively simplify arch/*/dts/Makefile.

Per https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/20230503145438.GB1134230@bill-the-cat/
I guess one could apply make's built-in sort function since the RHS is
very likely to contain some duplicates, but I don't think it really
matters. So for now I'm just posting the version of the patch that Tom
tested.
