[PATCH v2 4/5] binman: Use a private directory for bintools

[Simon Glass]

At present binman writes tools into the ~/bin directory. This is
convenient but some may be concerned about downloading unverified
binaries and running them. Place then in a special ~/.binman-tools
directory instead.

Mention this in the documentation.
