Simon Glass 3fb397bba0 binman: Expand documentation for entries
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.

Properties / Entry arguments:
- filename: Filename of file to read into entry
This file contains code used by the SoC that is required to make it work.
The Management Engine is like a background task that runs things that are
not clearly documented, but may include keyboard, deplay and network
access. For platform that use ME it is not possible to disable it. U-Boot
does not directly execute code in the ME binary.
A typical filename is 'me.bin'.
See README.x86 for information about x86 binary blobs.
