Add three overlays to disable the eth phy, rtc, and spi nor. These
overlays will be used to disable device tree nodes for components

v2:
   - Add build time tests in makefile

I am not sure if this a common practice to have overlays to disable
missing components (at least I dont see such dtso in kernel). I would
like to see an what DT maintainers feel as such dtsos can explode in
numbers.

Is this something that U-Boot can detect and fix up for the Linux DT?

Unpopulated SPI flash and RTC should ideally not be an issue as drivers
would gracefully fail albeit with some sort of error msg.
Not so sure about Eth PHYs though.

Also, Are these dtso's mutually exclusive? ie can SoM have SPI flash but
not RTC, have RTC and SPI Flash but no ETH PHY?
