f589882a70 binman: Support symbols in u-boot-spl-nodtb
Since this is an execuable we should be able insert symbol values into it.
Add support for this.

Use common code for this test and the original testSymbols. Use hex
consistently for the values and add some more comments.

b87064c249 binman: Allow support for writing a size symbol to binaries
It is useful to be able to access the size of an image in SPL, with
something like:

binman_sym_declare(unsigned long, u_boot_any, size);

...
   ulong u_boot_size = binman_sym(ulong, u_boot_any, size);

Add support for this and update the tests.

dbf6be9f7f binman: Add a new 'image-pos' property
At present each entry has an offset within its parent section. This is
useful for figuring out how entries relate to one another. However it
is sometimes necessary to locate an entry within an image, regardless
of which sections it is nested inside.

Add a new 'image-pos' property to provide this information. Also add
some documentation for the -u option binman provides, which updates the
device tree with final entry information.

Since the image position is a better symbol to use for the position of
U-Boot as obtained by SPL, update the SPL symbols to use this instead of
offset, which might be incorrect if hierarchical sections are used.

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.

83d290c56f SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel style
When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from.  So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry.  Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.

In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.

This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents.  There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

5cfcf7e0fd binman: Add tests binaries with binman symbols
For testing we need to build some ELF files containing binman symbols. Add
these to the Makefile and check in the binaries:

   u_boot_binman_syms - normal, valid ELF file
   u_boot_binman_syms_bad - missing the __image_copy_start symbol
   u_boot_binman_syms_size - has a binman symbol with an invalid size
