yes :) it's a silly remnant of history of changes.
Actually this goes away after implementing the default/weak function.

After the dt change, we no longer require this. But the location_uuid
is a standard member of an fwu_image_entry and cmd/fwu_mdata.c always
print it. So I think this should be seen as just what a platform wants
some unique id to be printed for the image (?).
