That is because the official DTC repository has moved to git.kernel.org!

Hmm. I seem to recall that the use of angle brackets was intentional.
I believe that was predicated on installing the FDT library on some
target machine and needing it to be able to find the other header
files in an installation, not source, directory.
Minor repository spelunking suggests that the angle brackets have
been around since Day Zero:
