For external data, FIT has a optional property "data-position" which
can set the external data to a fixed offset to FIT beginning.
Add the support for this property in SPL FIT.

SPL supports U-Boot image in FIT format which has data outside of
FIT structure. This adds support for embedded data for normal FIT
images.

In the source_file_format.txt file we talk about how to construct a
valid FIT image. While it already says to look at the source for the
full list, add kernel_noload to the explicit list of types. This is
arguably the most important type to use as most often we are including a
kernel that will run from wherever it is loaded into memory and execute.
This for example, allows you to create a single FIT image for Linux that
can be used on both OMAP and i.MX devices as the kernel will not need to
be moved in memory.

To help automate the loading of custom image types we add the ability
to define custom handlers for the loadable section types. When we find
a compatible type while loading a "loadable" image from a FIT image we
run its associated handlers to perform any additional steps needed for
loading this image.

When building a FIT with external data (-E), U-Boot proper may require
absolute positioning for executing the external firmware. To acheive this
use the (-p) switch, which will replace the amended 'data-offset' with
'data-position' indicating the absolute position of external data.
It is considered an error if the requested absolute position overlaps with the
initial data required for the compact FIT.

One limitation of FIT is that all the data is 'inline' within it, using a
'data' property in each image node. This means that to find out what is in
the FIT it is necessary to scan the entire file. Once loaded it can be
scanned and then the images can be copied to the correct place in memory.
In SPL it can take a significant amount of time to copy images around in
memory. Also loading data that does not end up being used is wasteful. It
would be useful if the FIT were small, acting as a directory, with the
actual data stored elsewhere.
This allows SPL to load the entire FIT, without the images, then load the
images it wants later.
Add a -E option to mkimage to request that it output an 'external' FIT.
