normal 4k page tables that allow us to set caching attributes on 2M

necessary for a map (including dynamic 1G/2M pages). It also adds
support to dynamically split a large map into smaller ones when
some code wants to set dcache attributes.
With all this in place, there is very little reason to create your

So far there is no support for hashing or verified boot using this method.
For those cases, a .its file must still be provided.

mkimage: Support automatic creating of a FIT without a .its
At present, when generating a FIT, mkimage requires a .its file containing
the structure of the FIT and referring to the images to be included.
Creating the .its file is a separate step that makes it harder to use FIT.
This is not required for creating legacy images.
Often the FIT is pretty standard, consisting of an OS image, some device
tree files and a single configuration. We can handle this case automatically
and avoid needing a .its file at all.
To start with, support automatically generate the FIT using a new '-f auto'
option. Initially this only supports adding a single image (e.g. a linux
kernel) and a single configuration.

mkimage: Allow a FIT to include an image of any type
At present FIT images are set up by providing a device tree source file
which is a file with a .its extension. We want to support automatically
creating this file based on the image supplied to mkimage. This means that
even though the final file type is always IH_TYPE_FLATDT, the image inside
may be something else.
