[PATCH v2 0/5] binman: Improvements to FIT entry type

I've managed to build images like in doc/chromium/chainload.rst wtih
binman, but ran into an issue with entry expansion in FIT and worked on
it a bit. I also added SetImagePos() because that documentation asks for
precise placement of u-boot.bin inside the FIT and I felt like doing it
as an easier way to know the positions.

I would try to refactor and experiment with FIT things more, but I know
Simon's currently working on converting SPL_FIT_GENERATOR to binman.
Instead I'm just sending things I have already done with some tests
added, hopefully without too many conflicts.

Changes in v2:
- Split reused testSimpleFit code into a helper function
- Check missing_bintools list instead of catching Fdt exceptions
- Add tag: "Reviewed-by: Simon Glass <sjg at chromium.org>"
