At present the fit implementation creates the output tree while
scanning the FIT description. Then it updates the tree later when the
data is known.
This works, but is a bit confusing, since it requires mixing the scanning
code with the generation code, with a fix-up step at the end.
It is actually possible to do this in two phases, one to scan everything
and the other to generate the FIT. Thus the FIT is generated in one pass,
when everything is known.
Update the code accordingly. The only functional change is that the 'data'
property for each node are now last instead of first, which is really a
more natural position. Update the affected test to deal with this.
One wrinkle is that the calculated properties (image-pos, size and offset)
are now added before the FIT is generated. so we must filter these out
when copying properties from the binman description to the FIT.
Most of the change here is splitting out some of the code from the
ReadEntries() implementation into _BuildInput(). So despite the large
diff, most of the code is the same. It is not feasible to split this patch
up, so far as I can tell.

At present we only support expanding out FDT nodes. Make the operation
into an @operation property, so that others can be supported.
Re-arrange and tidy up the documentation so that it has separate
headings for each topic.
