Log Message:
Add support for writing "AArch64 Linux kernel image" format images.
These images begin with a 64-byte header that includes a load offset,
image size, some flags, and a small (2 word) area at the start for
executable code.
These images are compatible with U-Boot's "booti" command, and can be
used to make U-Boot relocate our kernel to a 2MB aligned base address.
After relocation, U-Boot will jump to the code at the beginning of the
header, where we encode a relative branch forward instruction to branch
to the beginning of the kernel at offset +0x40.
