refactor(build): use a standard rule to run the preprocessor

There are a few, functionally identical, ways to call the preprocessor
on a non-C file, depending on the file. They differ in subtle, not
entirely correct, ways - one is missing a dependency to the makefiles,
another generates its .d inline, and the prints are different. That has
resulted in platforms reimplementing this functionality, making the
build brittle - a change to the overall build system doesn't propagate.
So add a MAKE_PRE macro that will make a rule with all the bells and
whistles to run the preprocessor on an arbitrary file.

This patch converts the arm platforms' cot_descriptors DTS rules. The
files are renamed to fit with the build rule and all extra flags are
dropped. Those flags are only necessary for building BL2 c files, which
will be passed to the output C file. Only the DTS flags are needed for
the preprocessing step, which will be passed automatically.

fix(cot-dt2c): use processed Device Tree source file as input

Update the test files to eliminate the use of preprocessor macros,
as the tool now requires processed output. The documentation has
also been revised accordingly.

Additionally, remove the Device Tree Source test files that were
added to test the #ifdef conditions.
