The README indicates that this is not supported, but this is no-longer true.
Update the text to indicate this and describe the FIT changes required.

90268b878b x86: Support loading kernel setup from a FIT
Add a new setup@ section to the FIT which can be used to provide a setup
binary for booting Linux on x86. This makes it possible to boot x86 from
a FIT.

824d82997f Fix example FIT image source files
The example FIT image source files do not compile with the latest dtc and
mkimage. The following error message is produced:

DTC: dts->dtb  on file "kernel.its"
Error: kernel.its 7:0 - 1:0 syntax error
FATAL ERROR: Unable to parse input tree
./mkimage: Can't read kernel.itb.tmp: Invalid argument

The FIT image source files are missing the "/dts-v1/;" directive at the
beginning of the file. Add the directive to the examples.
