[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 1/1] boot/arm-trusted-firmware: override BL31 environment variable error

When building the arm-trusted-firmware, if the host environment has a value
configured in the BL31 variable such as the following:

export BL31=/tmp/bl31.elf

This will cause the build of the bl31.elf to be skipped leading to the
following build error:

make[1]: Nothing to be done for 'bl31'.
And then:
readelf: Error: './output/build/arm-trusted-firmware-custom/build/versal/release/bl31/bl31.elf': No such file

To fix this, clear the BL31 variable in the MAKE_OPTS, so that building the
arm-trusted-firmware will build regardless of the host environment.
