[RFC/PATCH] powerpc/bootwrapper: Allow user to specify additional default targets

From: Grant Likely <grant.likely at secretlab.ca>

It is inconvenient to add additional default targets to the bootwrapper
Makefile for each new board supported which just needs a different dts
file.  This change allows the defconfig to specify additional build
targets.
