Fixes: #69548
Support extending an existing board with new board variants.
This commit introduces the following changes to allow a board to be
extended out-of-tree.
The board yaml schema is extended to support an extend field which
will be used to identify the board to be extended.
A board 'plank' can be extended like this:
> board:
> extend: plank
> variants:
> - name: ext
> qualifier: soc1
For the rest of the build system this means that there is no longer a
single board directory.
The existing CMake variable BOARD_DIR is kept and reference the
directory which defines the board.
A new CMake variable BOARD_DIRECTORIES provides a list of all
directories which defines board targets for the board.
This means the directory which defines the board as well as all
directories that extends the board.
