main/dtbtool-exynos: fix unreliable behaviour
Hopefully these can be merged in the repo we track, but let's add them
to pmaports in the meanwhile.

Fixes issue where allocated, but non-set memory is used, which gives
unpredictable behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH] dtbtool-exynos: zero allocated dtb_files memory
To check if an element of dtb_files is already allocated, we later
use:
if (dtb_files[i]) { ... }
If memory has not been zero'ed then this check might or might not
succeed, as we have no idea what garbage values are inside the memory.
