There are lots of reason why a FDT application might fail, the
error code might give an indication. Let the error code translate
in a error string so users can try to understand what went wrong.

Currently I get this when I apply a device tree overlay to a device
tree without symbols:

  Colibri iMX7 # fdt apply ${loadaddr}
  Colibri iMX7 # fdt print
  libfdt fdt_path_offset() returned FDT_ERR_BADMAGIC
  Colibri iMX7 #

With this change, the situation is a bit more indicative:

  Colibri iMX7 # fdt apply ${loadaddr}
  fdt_overlay_apply(): FDT_ERR_NOTFOUND
  Colibri iMX7 # fdt print
  libfdt fdt_path_offset() returned FDT_ERR_BADMAGIC
  Colibri iMX7 #
