At present padding of sections is inconsistent with other entry types, in
that different pad bytes are used.
When a normal entry is padded by its parent, the parent's pad byte is
used. But for sections, the section's pad byte is used.
Adjust logic to always do this the same way.
Note there is still a special case in entry_Section.GetPaddedData() where
an image is padded with the pad byte of the top-level section. This is
necessary since otherwise there would be no way to set the pad byte of
the image, without adding a top-level section to every image.

At present we use 'compress' as the property to set the compression of
a 'files' entry. But this conflicts with the same property for entries,
of which Entry_section is a subclass.
Strictly speaking, since Entry_files is in fact a subclass of
Entry_section, the files can be compressed individually but also the
section (that contains all the files) can itself be compressed. With this
change, it is possible to express that.

These test files are currently "intended for use on x86 hosts", but most
of the tests using them can still pass when cross-compiled to x86 on an
arm64 host.
This patch enables non-x86 hosts to run the tests by specifying a
cross-compiler via CROSS_COMPILE. The list of variables it sets is taken
from the top-level Makefile. It would be possible to automatically set
an x86 cross-compiler with a few blocks like:
ifneq ($(shell i386-linux-gnu-gcc --version 2> /dev/null),)
CROSS_COMPILE = i386-linux-gnu-
endif
But it wouldn't propagate to the binman process calling this Makefile,
so it's better just raise an error and expect 'binman test' to be run
with a correct CROSS_COMPILE.

When reading subentries of each image, the FIT entry type directly
concatenates their contents without padding them according to their
offset, size, align, align-size, align-end, pad-before, pad-after
properties.
This patch makes sure these properties are respected by offloading this
image-data building to the section etype, where each subnode of the
"images" node is processed as a section. Alignments and offsets are
respective to the beginning of each image. For example, the following
fragment can end up having "u-boot-spl" start at 0x88 within the final
FIT binary, while "u-boot" would then end up starting at e.g. 0x20088.
fit {
description = "example";
images {
kernel-1 {
description = "U-Boot with SPL";
type = "kernel";
arch = "arm64";
os = "linux";
compression = "none";
u-boot-spl {
};
u-boot {
align = <0x10000>;
};

FIT (Flat Image Tree) is the main image format used by U-Boot. In some
cases scripts are used to create FITs within the U-Boot build system. This
is not ideal for various reasons:
- Each architecture has its own slightly different script
- There are no tests
- Some are written in shell, some in Python
To help address this, add support for FIT generation to binman. This works
by putting the FIT source directly in the binman definition, with the
ability to adjust parameters, etc. The contents of each FIT image come
from sub-entries of the image, as is normal with binman.

A recent change adjusted the symbol calculation to work on x86 but broke
it for Tegra. In fact this is because they have different needs.
On x86 devices the code is linked to a ROM address and the end-at-4gb
property is used for the image. In this case there is no need to add the
base address of the image, since the base address is already built into
the offset and image-pos properties.
On other devices we must add the base address since the offsets start at
zero.
In addition the base address is currently added to the 'offset' and 'size'
values. It should in fact only be added to 'image-pos', since 'offset' is
relative to its parent and 'size' is not actually an address. This code
should have been adjusted when support for 'image-pos' and 'size' was
added, but it was not.
To correct these problems:
- move the code that handles adding the base address to section.py, which
can check the end-at-4gb property and which property
(offset/size/image-pos) is being read
- add the base address only when needed (only for image-pos and not if the
image uses end-at-4gb)
- add a note to the documentation
- add a separate test to cover x86 behaviour

Entries which include a section and need to obtain its contents call
GetData(), as with any other entry. But the current implementation of this

TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'NoneType'
