of: overlay: loosen overly strict phandle clash check
When an overlay contains a node that already exists in the live device tree, the overlay node is not allowed to change the phandle of the existing node. The existing check refused to allow an overlay node to set the node phandle even when the existing node did not have a phandle. Relax the check to allow an overlay node to set the phandle value if the existing node does not have a phandle.
