pitft: Add basic support for PiTFT
Add basic support for PiTFT display by using device-trees. In order get it working below configurations must be active in local.conf: MACHINE_FEATURES += "pitft" - This will enable SPI bus and i2c device-trees, it will also setup framebuffer for console and x server on PiTFT.

218=========================
219Basic support for using PiTFT screens can be enabled by adding
220below in local.conf:
221
222MACHINE_FEATURES += "pitft"
223 - This will enable SPI bus and i2c device-trees, it will also setup
224 framebuffer for console and x server on PiTFT.

226NOTE: To get this working the overlay for the PiTFT model must be build,
227 added and specified as well (dtoverlay=<driver> in config.txt)
