Add a tool that can generate GUIDs that match those generated internally

Dynamic UUIDs in U-Boot work by taking a namespace UUID and hashing it
with the board model, compatible, and fw_image name.
This tool accepts the same inputs and will produce the same GUID as
U-Boot would at runtime.

Where is this tool used? Can you add a man page and test?
It currently doesn't have any users, it just allows for pre-generating
GUIDs ahead of time for a given board. It might be hooked up to vendor
tooling or some usecase like that.
I've somehow escaped learning Groff before now heh, I can give it a go
and write a test.
Regards,
Simon
