    This is a first step towards reorganizing the mkimage code to make it
    easier to add support for additional images types. Current mkimage
    code is specific to generating uImage and FIT image files, but the
    same framework can be used to generate other image types like
    Kirkwood boot images (kwbimage-TBD). For this, the mkimage code gets
    reworked:
    
    Here is the brief plan for the same:-
    a) Split mkimage code into core and image specific support
    b) Implement callback functions for image specific code
    c) Move image type specific code to respective C files
           Currently there are two types of file generation/list
           supported (i.e uImage, FIT), the code is abstracted from
           mkimage.c/.h and put in default_image.c and fit_image.c;
           all code in these file is static except init function call
    d) mkimage_register API is added to add new image type support
    All above is addressed in this patch
    e) Add kwbimage type support to this new framework (TBD)
    This will be implemented in a following commit.
