After some discussion with Andy, I will be releasing these SRUs much
earlier conditionally. This is a special case and should not be treated
as a general rule.

The bits from this SRU, especially for xenial, are required for a close-
deadline project. The changes are isolated to the u-boot-tools package
only, so the risk of breaking user systems is low. The change itself is
(for most series) a config option change only - although even that can
cause regressions, the risk is relatively low. I have checked the u
-boot-tools reverse dependencies of their use of mkimage/dumpimage and
assessed that the impact of any discovered regressions should be low as
well. For xenial, as there was a bit more tweaking there, I also did a
few non-FIT-related mkimage and dumpimage test runs to make sure the
xenial-proposed version still works.

Let's get this released and keep a look-out for any reported
regressions, reverting quickly to the previous version in case anything
critical is found.
