Add a runtime interface to using configfs for generic device tree overlay
usage.

A device-tree configfs entry is created in /config/device-tree/overlays

To create an overlay you mkdir the directory and then echo the overlay
firmware file to the path property file.

# mkdir /config/device-tree/overlays/foo
# echo foo.dtbo >/config/device-tree/overlays/foo/path

+ char *page)
+{
+ return sprintf(page, "%s\n",
+ overlay->applied ? "applied" : "unapplied");
+}

This needs to be added to the above mentioned documentation along with
any other files.

It is also terrible to grep for. Maybe just have the file named
"applied" and use a bool instead?
