tools: ynl-gen: don't output external constants

[ Upstream commit 7e8b24e24ac46038e48c9a042e7d9b31855cbca5 ]

A definition with a "header" property is an "external" definition
for C code, as in it is defined already in another C header file.
Other languages will need the exact value but C codegen should
not recreate it. So don't output those definitions in the uAPI
header.
