While converting to binman for an imx8mq board, it has been found that
building in the u-boot CI fails. This is because an imx8mq requires an
external binary (signed_hdmi_imx8m.bin). If this file cannot be found
mkimage fails.
To be able to build this board in the u-boot CI a binman option
(--fake-ext-blobs) is introduced that can be switched on via the u-boot
makefile option BINMAN_FAKE_EXT_BLOBS. With that the needed dummy files are
created.

WIth EFI we must embed the devicetree in an ELF image so that it is loaded
as part of the executable file. We want it to include the binman
definition in there also, which in some cases cannot be created until the
ELF (u-boot) is built. Add an option to binman to support writing the
updated dtb to the ELF file u-boot.out

This is useful with the EFI app, which is always packaged as an ELF file.

The comment for this function is missing an argument and the return value.

Binman needs to be able to update the contents of an ELF file after it has
been build. To support this, add a function to locate the position of a
symbol's contents within the file.

Fix the comments on bss_data.c and Symbol while we are here.

At present any error from the 'make' command is silently swallowed by the
test system. Fix this by showing it when detected.

At present testThreadTimeout() assumes that the expected timeout happens
first when building the section, but it can just as easily happen at the
top-level image. Update the test to cope with both.

The previous patches removed OF_PRIOR_STAGE from the last consumers of the
Kconfig option.  Cleanup any references to it in documentation,  code and

This allows to use the watchdog in custom scripts but does not enforce
that the OS has to support it as well.
