For sandbox we want to put ELF files in the image since that is what we
need to execute. Add support for this.

When TPL is used on x86 we may want to program the microcode (at least for
the first CPU) early in boot. Add support for this by refactoring the
existing code to be more generic.

In some cases it is useful to add a group of files to the image and be
able to access them at run-time. Of course it is possible to generate
the binman config file with a set of blobs each with a filename. But for
convenience, add an entry type which can do this.
Add required support (for adding nodes and string properties) into the
state module.

Add support for compressing blob entries. This can help reduce image sizes
for many types of data. It requires that the firmware be able to
decompress the data at run-time.

Binman currently supports updating the main device tree with things like
the position of each entry. Extend this support to SPL and TPL as well,
since they may need (a subset of) this information.
Also adjust DTB output files to have a .out extension since this seems
clearer than having a .dtb extension with 'out' in the name somwhere.
Also add a few missing comments and update the DT setup code to use
ReadFile and WriteFile().

At present if there are two vblock entries an image their contents are
written to the same file in the output directory. This prevents checking
the contents of each separately.
Fix this by adding part of the entry path to the filename, and add some
missing comments.

Sometimes we want to include TPL for x86 platforms, such as when we want
to select between different SPL images (e.g. for Chrome OS verified boot).
Add support for this.

Add support for U-Boot's TPL and TPL device tree. Also fix a few comments
in the other device-tree entries.

It is sometimes useful to have an area of the image which is all zeroes,
or all 0xff. This can often be achieved by padding the size of an an
existing entry and setting the pad byte for an entry or image.
But it is useful to have an explicit means of adding blocks of repeating
data to the image. Add a 'fill' entry type to handle this.

Add an entry type which can hold a Chrome OS EC.
To make this work a new entry type is created, which supports getting a
blob filename from the command line.

Add an entry which can hold an FMAP region as used by flashrom, an
open-source flashing tool used on Linux x86 machines. This provides a
simplified non-hierarchical view of the entries in the image and has a
signature at the start to allow flashrom to find it in the image.

Create a new README containing documentation for the entry types supported
by binman. This provides an easy reference in one place. It is
automatically generated from the source-code documentation.
Add a reference to this from the binman README.
