Trying to flash a FIT image over fastboot often results in errors like
this:
Invalid sparse file format at header magic
error: write_sparse_skip_chunk: don't care size 18394488 is not a multiple
of the block size 4096
error: write_sparse_skip_chunk: don't care size 10009976 is not a multiple
of the block size 4096
error: write_sparse_skip_chunk: don't care size 1625464 is not a multiple
of the block size 4096
[...]
FAILED (remote: 'writing sparse image: Invalid argument')
The FIT image knows about its own size anyway, so to get around this
issue, we can simply pad the image to a multiple of 4 kiB to make it
work with the fastboot sparse magic.
