dtoc: Allow DTC environment variable to provide path to dtc
The system device-tree compiler may not be new enough to run the tests we use in U-Boot (e.g. with binman). Allow use of a DTC environment variable to point to the correct dtc. If not defined, the dtc on the default PATH is used. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>

Most of the time such essoteric behaviour is not needed, but it can be
essential for complex images.
+If you need to specify a particular device-tree compiler to use, you can define
+the DTC environment variable. This can be useful when the system dtc is too
+old.
