[PATCH v3 00/20] FWU: Add support for FWU metadata version 2

The following patch series adds support for version 2 of the FWU
metadata. The version 2 metadata structure is defined in the latest
revision of the FWU specification [1].

The earlier versions of these patches were migrating to a version 2
only support in U-Boot, similar to TF-A. However, based on feedback
from ST [2], this series has been updated to support both versions. A
platform would still be needed to enable one of the two versions of
metadata through a config symbol.

TF-A has code which reads the FWU metadata and boots the platform from
the active partition. TF-A has decided to migrate the FWU code to a
version 2 only support. These changes have been merged in upstream
TF-A.

These changes have been tested on the ST DK2 board, which uses the GPT
based partitioning scheme. Both V1 and V2 metadata versions have been
tested on the DK2 board.

These changes need to be tested on platforms with MTD partitioned
storage devices.

@Michal and @Kojima-san, please help in this testing.

Note: The CI is breaking on some sandbox py tests, but the errors look
unrelated. I will look into those issues, but the code review can
proceed.

Changes since V2:
* New patch which retains support for V1 of metadata
* Earlier patch was catering to v2 only support. These changes support
  both versions of metadata.
* Earlier patch was migrating to v2 only support. These changes
  support both versions.
* Support both metadata versions instead of only v2.
* Added documentation changes.
* Make changes to have the test work with v1 metadata.
* Make changes to have the test work with updated logic in fwu code.
* Changes to indicate support for both v1 and v2 instead of only v2.
* Add config symbol for selecting either of the two metadata versions.
