741f2d620c binman: Move to three-digit test-file numbers
We now have 99 tests. Before adding any more, rename everything to three
digits. This helps to preserve the ordering of tests and makes it easier
to find things.

3ab9598df7 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.

f689890d8e binman: Adjust size of test SPL binary
This is only 3 bytes long which is not enough to hold two symbol values,
needed to test the binman symbols feature. Increase it to 15 bytes.

Using very small regions is useful since we can easily compare them in
tests and errors are fairly easy to diagnose.

e0ff855138 binman: Add support for building x86 ROMs
The structure of x86 ROMs is pretty complex. There are various binary blobs
to place in the image. Microcode requires special handling so that it is
available to very early code and can be used without any memory whatsoever.

Add support for the various entry types that are currently needed, along
with some tests.
