Add a simple unit test for testing the RAUC bootmethod. Provide only the
very basic tests for now, running a scan and list, to verify correct
detection of the RAUC bootmethod. More advanced boot tests of this
bootmethod can be added in a separate patch.
This requires another mmc image (mmc9) to contain the following
partitions:
1. boot A: contains a dummy boot.scr
2. root A: contains an empty root filesystem
3. boot B: contains a dummy boot.scr
4. root B: contains an empty root filesystem
The bootmeth_rauc scans all four partitions for existence and expects a
boot script in each boot partition.
Also add BOOTMETH_RAUC as a dependency on sandbox so that we can test
this with:
$ ./test/py/test.py -B sandbox --build -k test_ut # build the mmc9.img
$ ./test/py/test.py -B sandbox --build -k bootflow_rauc

Changes in v2:
- Use mk_fs() instead of calling fallocate/mkfs/mcopy individually for
  the boot and root partitions in mmc9.img
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251008-wip-bootmeth-rauc-tests-v1-1-3da21a731524@phytec.de
