To be honest, I've never used binman :) So I'm not sure whether binman
is the best place to add this feature. For example, README under tools/binman
says, "It seems better to use the mkimage tool to generate binaries and avoid
blurring the boundaries between building input files (mkimage) and packaging
then into a final image (binman)."
Obviously, dtb is not the final image.

Due to the history of submissions of this series, the current pytest
scenario doesn't use the script, but you can see the exact same
sequence of commands at test/py/tests/test_efi_capsule/conftest.py:
---8<---
# Update dtb adding capsule certificate
check_call('cd %s; cp %s/test/py/tests/test_efi_capsule/signature.dts .'
% (data_dir, u_boot_config.source_dir), shell=True)
check_call('cd %s; dtc -@ -I dts -O dtb -o signature.dtbo signature.dts; fdtoverlay -i %s/arch/sandbox/dts/test.dtb -o test_sig.dtb signature.dtbo'
% (data_dir, u_boot_config.build_dir), shell=True)
--->8---
(Please see my patch#11.)
What I meant is that we can directly use fdtsig.sh here if your concern
is that the script is *not exercised* anywhere.
