Some images may take a while to build, e.g. if they are large and use slow
compression. Support compiling sections in parallel to speed things up.

(fixed to use a separate test file to fix flakiness)
For scenarios like OF_BOARD or OF_PRIOR_STAGE, no device tree blob is
provided in the U-Boot build phase hence the binman node information
is not available. In order to support such use case, a new Kconfig
option BINMAN_STANDALONE_FDT is introduced, to tell the build system
that a device tree blob containing binman node is explicitly required
when using binman to package U-Boot.

Sometimes it is useful to specify the default alignment for all entries
in a section, such as when word-alignment is necessary, for example. It
is tedious and error-prone to specify this individually for each section.
Add a property to control this for a section.

At present there is a command-line flag to disable substitution of expanded
entries. Add an option to the entry node as well, so it can be controlled
at the node level.
Add a test to cover this. Fix up the comment to the checkSymbols() function
it uses, while we are here.

Add a link to binman's documentation and adjust the files so that it is
accessible. Use the name README.rst so it is easy to discover when binman
is installed without U-Boot.
