Changes in v3:
- Case fold hex string.
- Revert binman part of imx8mm-verdin-u-boot.dtsi to a plain copy from
  imx8mm-evk and postpone further improvements to after migrating to a
  common binman config as agreed with Frieder and Simon.

Changes in v2:
- Explicitly pass filename to binman when generating binaries as
  suggested by Heiko.
- Use proper intermediate binary u-boot-spl-ddr.bin for imximage as
  pointed out by Heiko.
