At present, before any entry expansion is done (such as a 'files' entry expanding out to individual entries for each file it contains), we check the binman definition (i.e. '/binman' node) to find out what devicetree files are used in the images.
This is a pain, since the definition may change during expansion. For example if there is no u-boot-spl-dtb entry in the definition at the start, we assume that the SPL devicetree is not used. But if an entry later expands to include this, then we don't notice. In fact the flexibility provided by the current approach of checking the definition is not really useful. We know that we can have SPL and TPL devicetrees. We know the pathname to each, so we can simply check if the files are present. If they are present, we can prepare them and update them regardless of whether they are actually used. If they are not present, we cannot prepare/update them anyway, i.e. an error will be generated. Simplify state.Prepare() so it uses a hard-coded list of devicetree files. Note that state.PrepareFromLoadedData() is left untouched, since in that case we have a complete definition from the loaded file, but cannot of course rely on the devicetree files that created it still being present. So in that case we still check the image defitions.
