At present binman sets the python path on startup so that it can access
the libraries it needs. If we convert to use absolute imports this is not
necessary.
Move binman to use absolute imports. This enables removable of the path
adjusting in Entry also.

The Intel descriptor must always appear at the start of an (x86) image,
so it is supposed to position itself there always. However there is no
explicit test for this. Add one and fix a bug introduced by the recent
change to adjust Entry to read the node in a separate call.

An Integrated Firmware Image is used to hold various binaries used for
booting with Apollolake and some later devices. Add support for this.

At present having a descriptor means that there is an ME (Intel
Management Engine) entry as well. The descriptor provides the ME location
and assumes that it is present.
For some SoCs this is not true. Before providing the location of a
potentially non-existent entry, check if it is present.
Update the comment in the ME entry also.

At present binman requires that the Intel descriptor has an explicit
offset. Generally this is 0 since the descriptor is at the start of the
image. Add a default to handle this, so users don't need to specify the
offset.

FD is a bit confusing so write this out in full. Also avoid splitting the
string so that people can grep for the error message more easily.

At present only the more complex entries are documented. It is useful to
have documentation for all entries in one place.
As a first step, add and expand the documentation to cover all entries.

After some thought, I believe there is an unfortunate naming flaw in
binman. Entries have a position and size, but now that we support
hierarchical sections it is unclear whether a position should be an
absolute position within the image, or a relative position within its
parent section.
At present 'position' actually means the relative position. This indicates
a need for an 'image position' for code that wants to find the location of
an entry without having to do calculations back through parents to
discover this image position.
A better name for the current 'position' or 'pos' is 'offset'. It is not
always an absolute position, but it is always an offset from its parent
offset.
It is unfortunate to rename this concept now, 18 months after binman was
introduced. However I believe it is the right thing to do. The impact is
mostly limited to binman itself and a few changes to in-tree users to
binman:
tegra
sunxi
x86
The change makes old binman definitions (e.g. downstream or out-of-tree)
incompatible if they use the 'pos = <...>' property. Later work will
adjust binman to generate an error when it is used.

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.
In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.
This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

Now that we have added file names from Kconfig in x86 u-boot.dtsi,
update binman to avoid using hard-coded names.

The structure of x86 ROMs is pretty complex. There are various binary blobs
to place in the image. Microcode requires special handling so that it is
available to very early code and can be used without any memory whatsoever.
Add support for the various entry types that are currently needed, along
with some tests.
