patman: Move library functions into a library directory

The patman directory has a number of modules which are used by other tools
in U-Boot. This makes it hard to package the tools using pypi since the
common files must be copied along with the tool that uses them.

To address this, move these files into a new u_boot_pylib library. This
can be packaged separately and listed as a dependency of each tool.

binman: Remove redundant SetAllowFakeBlob from blob-ext entry

Entry_blob_ext contains an implementation of SetAllowFakeBlob that is
identical to the one in the base Entry class, remove it.

binman: add support for creating dummy files for external blobs

While converting to binman for an imx8mq board, it has been found that
building in the u-boot CI fails. This is because an imx8mq requires an
external binary (signed_hdmi_imx8m.bin). If this file cannot be found
mkimage fails.
To be able to build this board in the u-boot CI a binman option
(--fake-ext-blobs) is introduced that can be switched on via the u-boot
makefile option BINMAN_FAKE_EXT_BLOBS. With that the needed dummy files are
created.

binman: Drop repetitive heading for each entry

Many entries start 'Entry containing a'. This looks fine in the source
code but is annoying when viewed in the htmldocs table of contents. Drop
these unnecessary words.

binman: Move 'external' support into base class

At present we have an Entry_blob_ext which implement a blob which holds an

binaries, e.g. Entry_blob_named_by_arg. Move the support into the base
Entry class to allow this.

binman: Allow external binaries to be missing

Sometimes it is useful to build an image even though external binaries are
not present. This allows the build system to continue to function without
these files, albeit not producing valid images.

U-Boot does with with ATF (ARM Trusted Firmware) today.

binman: Add an etype for external binary blobs

It is useful to be able to distinguish between ordinary blobs such as
u-boot.bin and external blobs that cannot be build by the U-Boot build
system. If the external blobs are not available for some reason, then we
know that a value image cannot be built.

Introduce a new 'blob-ext' entry type for that.
