binman: Add a new 'image-pos' property

At present each entry has an offset within its parent section. This is
useful for figuring out how entries relate to one another. However it
is sometimes necessary to locate an entry within an image, regardless
of which sections it is nested inside.

Add a new 'image-pos' property to provide this information. Also add
some documentation for the -u option binman provides, which updates the
device tree with final entry information.

Since the image position is a better symbol to use for the position of
U-Boot as obtained by SPL, update the SPL symbols to use this instead of
offset, which might be incorrect if hierarchical sections are used.

binman: Rename 'position' to 'offset'

After some thought, I believe there is an unfortunate naming flaw in
binman. Entries have a position and size, but now that we support
hierarchical sections it is unclear whether a position should be an
absolute position within the image, or a relative position within its
parent section.

At present 'position' actually means the relative position. This indicates
a need for an 'image position' for code that wants to find the location of
an entry without having to do calculations back through parents to
discover this image position.

A better name for the current 'position' or 'pos' is 'offset'. It is not
always an absolute position, but it is always an offset from its parent
offset.

It is unfortunate to rename this concept now, 18 months after binman was
introduced. However I believe it is the right thing to do. The impact is
mostly limited to binman itself and a few changes to in-tree users to
binman:

tegra
sunxi
x86

The change makes old binman definitions (e.g. downstream or out-of-tree)
incompatible if they use the 'pos = <...>' property. Later work will
adjust binman to generate an error when it is used.

binman: Add tests binaries with binman symbols

For testing we need to build some ELF files containing binman symbols. Add
these to the Makefile and check in the binaries:

u_boot_binman_syms - no

binman: Add tests binaries with binman symbols

For testing we need to build some ELF files containing binman symbols. Add
these to the Makefile and check in the binaries:

u_boot_binman_syms - normal, valid ELF file
u_boot_binman_syms_bad - missing the __image_copy_start symbol
u_boot_binman_syms_size - has a binman symbol with an invalid size
