Boot image format

I used Android boot bridge's release zip to "skip" the bootimg_analyze step, as the releases include a "template boot.img".

This device uses ELF image but also adds RPM file to the mix which at the end builds into dt file in boot image. The ELF image support Merge Request does still not support it but i will work on it to get it supported. For now boot image has to be generated manually with mkelf.
