Move the check for this further out, so that base_addr is computed in
Entry.WriteSymbols() rather than at lower levels.

The base address of the ELF containing symbols is normally added to
any symbols written, so that the value points to the correct address in
memory when everything is loaded. When the binary resides on disk, a
different offset may be needed, typically 0. Provide a way to specify
this.

FIT provides a way to select between different devicetree blobs
depending on the model. This works fine for U-Boot proper and allows SPL
to select the correct blob for the current board at runtime. The boot
sequence (SPL->U-Boot proper) is therefore covered by the existing
feature set.

The first boot phase (typically TPL) cannot use FIT since SoC boot ROMs
don't currently support it. Therefore the TPL image must be specific to
each model it boots on.

To support booting on mulitple models, binman must therefore produce a
separate TPL image for each model, even if the images for the rest of
the phases are identical.

TPL needs to be packaged as an executable binary along with a reduced
devicetree. When multiple models are supported, a reduced devicetree
must be provided for each model.

U-Boot's build system is designed to build a single devicetree for SPL
builds, so does not support this requirement.

Add a new 'alternatives' feature to Binman, allowing it to automatically
subset a devicetree to produce the reduced devicetree for a particular
phase for each supported model. With this it is possible to produce a
separate TPL image for each of the models. The correct one can then be
loaded onto a board, along with the common FIT image(s).

At present the contents of an FDT (for each phase) are fixed,
determined by the build and provided to Binman as input files.

Provide a means for entry types to provide their own FDT, so that it can
be processed, if needed.

When an entry is compressed, write the compressed contents to a file so
that it is possible to see what was produced. This aids debugging with
new images.

Binman has a the useful feature of handling missing external blobs
gracefully, including allowing them to be missing, deciding whether the
resulting image is functional or not and faking blobs when this is
necessary for particular tools (e.g. mkimage).

This feature is widely used in CI. One drawback is that if U-Boot grows
too large to fit along with the required blobs, then this is not
discovered until someone does a 'real' build which includes the blobs.

Add a 'assume-size' property to entries to allow Binman to reserve a
given size for missing external blobs.

Add support for writing symbols and determining the assumed position of
binaries inside a mkimage image. This is useful as an example for other
entry types which might want to do the same thing.
