[PATCH] of: implement of_rename_property()

It's often desirable to have the same barebox binary for multiple
variants. DT-level differences between the variants are often handled
by having extra device tree nodes that are disabled by default and
patched as appropriate by board code. It can be useful to have a finer
granularity for patching though, that covers only a select property, e.g.:

   usbotg1 {
	vbus-supply = <&reg_vbus_common>;
	vendor,specialvariant-vbus-supply = <&reg_vbus_specialvariant>;
   };

The new of_rename_property allows board code to easily activate the
alternative vbus supply on the specialvariant:

  of_rename_property(np, "vendor,specialvariant-vbus-supply",
			 "vbus-supply");
