dtc: [experimental] Process input files with cpp

[David Gibson]

I'm starting to be convinced by the arguments that we need internal
function processing instead of using preprocessor macros.  However, in
the interests of more bits and pieces to play with, here's an
experimental patch that causes dtc to run its input files through cpp
before reading them.

This uses a probably not portable option to GNU cpp to make it only
recognize # characters in column 0, and disables rather than using the
file/line number information the preprocessor would usually include in
its output.  All fixable, but like I say, this is just for playing
with, not an actual proposal.

This applies on top of my srcpos / input file rework series.
