So right now the build generates binaries for all three types: HS-FS, 
HS-SE and GP devices. It's not necessary for the user to provide 
component binaries for all three of them, say they only have GP SYSFW 
binaries available with them. So that was the reasoning behind putting 
those binaries as optional, we should not have a failed build in those 
cases. However binaries like DM and board-config binaries that are 
common between all three needs to be there so it's not optional.
