If the libfdt is simply what comes along with opensbi, then I can live
with that for now, once opensbi becomes a submodule.
The conversion to use the current EmbeddedPkg FdtLib should however be
completely trivial. So I would still like to see the following
*attempted* before we start considering this being included in edk2
master:
- add FdtLib to RiscVOpensbiLib.inf [LibraryClasses]
- delete all of the libfdt/* files from RiscVOpensbiLib.inf [Sources]
- add EmbeddedPkg/EmbeddedPkg.dec to RiscVOpensbiLib.inf [Packages]
