b83994dec7 bloblist: Zero records when adding
It is convenient for bloblist to zero out the contents of a records when
it is added. This saves the callers having to do it.

Update the API accordingly.

5b044548f5 bloblist: Add a new function to add or check size
A common check is to see if a blob is present, create it if not and make
sure that the size is large enough. Add a function to handle this.

3db7110857 crc32: Use the crc.h header for crc functions
Drop inclusion of crc.h in common.h and use the correct header directly
instead.

With this we can drop the conflicting definition in fw_env.h and rely on
the crc.h header, which is already included.

9f407d4ef0 Add core support for a bloblist to convey data from SPL
At present there is no standard way in U-Boot to pass information from SPL
to U-Boot proper. But sometimes SPL wants to convey information to U-Boot
that U-Boot cannot easily figure out. For example, if SPL sets up SDRAM
then it might want to pass the size of SDRAM, or the location of each
bank, to U-Boot proper.

Add a new 'bloblist' feature which provides this. A bloblist is set up in
the first phase of U-Boot that runs (i.e. TPL or SPL). The location of
this info may be in SRAM or CAR (x86 cache-as-RAM) or somewhere else.

Information placed in this region is preserved (with a checksum) through
TPL and SPL and ends up in U-Boot. At this point it is copied into SDRAM
so it can be used after relocation.
