The patchset adds support for the FWU Multi Bank Update[1]
feature. Certain aspects of the Dependable Boot[2] specification have
also been implemented.

The FWU multi bank update feature is used for supporting multiple
sets(also called banks) of firmware image(s), allowing the platform to
boot from a different bank, in case it fails to boot from the active
bank. This functionality is supported by keeping the relevant
information in a structure called metadata, which provides information
on the images. Among other parameters, the metadata structure contains
information on the currect active bank that is being used to boot
image(s).

Functionality is being added to work with the UEFI capsule driver in
u-boot. The metadata is read to gather information on the update bank,
which is the bank to which the firmware images would be flashed to. On
a successful completion of the update of all components, the active
bank field in the metadata is updated, to reflect the bank from which
the platform will boot on the subsequent boots.

Currently, the feature is being enabled on the STM32MP157C-DK2
board which boots a FIP image from a uSD card partitioned with the GPT
partioning scheme. This also requires changes in the previous stage of
bootloader, which parses the metadata and selects the bank to boot the
image(s) from. Support is being added in tf-a(BL2 stage) for the
STM32MP157C-DK2 board to boot the active bank images. These changes
have been merged to the upstream tf-a's integration branch[3].

These patches are based on top of the series from Takahiro to add
Authentication support to mkeficapsule utility[4] and a couple of
other patches[5][6]

TODO's
------
* Add a unit test case for the newly added FWU_MDATA uclass. Some
  involved effort is needed on this since the host device interface on
  sandbox cannot be used with the UT framework.
* Add test case for the feature with the python test suite, along the
  lines of capsule update testing.

Changes since V3:
* Move the FWU metadata access to driver model
* Get the storage device containing the metadata from a device tree
  property instead of a platform helper function
* Move the metadata access driver for GPT partitioned block devices
  under drivers/fwu-mdata/ directory, complying with driver model.
* Move functionality to get the active index under the common function
  instead of the GPT block device specific driver.
* Remove function for getting the storage device containing the
  metadata as the information is now obtained from the device tree.
* Define a weak function fill_image_type_guid_array for populating the
  image descriptor array with u-boot's raw and fit image GUIDs
* Define the function fill_image_type_guid_array for the ST DK2 board
  for GPT partitioned devices.
* Change the TrialStateCtr efi variable attribute to remove the
  runtime attribute
* Rebase the change on top of the patch from Masami to call
  efi_capsule_update_firmware directly.
* Put the FWU related checks which were earlier in efi_update_capsule
  function to separate functions fwu_empty_capsule and
  fwu_empty_capsule_process.
* Use the device model api uclass_get_device to probe and get the FWU
  Metadata device.
* Add related documentation for empty capsules in the mkeficapsule man
  page.
* Add separate usage for empty capsules, with corresponding valid
  options.
* Use ternary operators where possible.
* Put a exclusivity check for the empty capsule options.
