ARMv8: add optional Linux kernel image header
Allow placing a Linux kernel image header at the start of the U-Boot
binary. This is useful since the image header reports the amount of memory
(BSS and similar) that U-Boot needs to use, but that isn't part of the
binary size. This can be used by the code that loads U-Boot into memory to
determine where to load U-Boot, based on other users of memory.
