[PATCH-22.03 01/10] ipq40xx: Support Chromium OS image-type creation

See firmware-utils.git commits [1], which implemented the cros-vbutil
verified-boot payload-packing tool, and extended ptgen for the CrOS
kernel partition type. With these, it's now possible to package kernel +
rootfs to make disk images that can boot a Chrome OS-based system (e.g.,
Chromebooks, or even a few AP models).
Regarding PARTUUID= changes: Chromium bootloaders work well with a
partition number offset (i.e., relative to the kernel partition), so
we'll be using a slightly different root UUID line.
NB: I've made this support specific to ip40xx for now, because I only
plan to support an IPQ4019-based AP that uses a Chromium-based
bootloader, but this image format can be used for essentially any
Chromebook, as well as the Google OnHub, a prior Chromium-based AP using
an IPQ8064 chipset.

Good afternoon everyone.
This series intends to support Google WiFi device 'Gale'.
I think I found all relevant commits and testing looked promising.
Feedback is highly appreciated; I realize these are a lot commits but as
most of them is pretty isolated from other devices and even subtargets,
this might be just fine?
Anyway. Have a nice weekend,
Aiyion
