Similar to Linux's defconfig, this commit allows the user to
specify a defconfig that is not a default eg for CVA6-CHERI or
Codasip's X730 by passing its name to --u-boot/defconfig $XXX
Install the host-built mkimage tool as part of the U-Boot installation.

mkimage is useful for creating U-Boot payload images and scripts, including
FIT images and .scr boot scripts.
Install any generated RISC-V device tree blobs alongside the other U-Boot
artifacts.
Some platforms and U-Boot configurations (e.g. FIT images) require DTBs to
be packaged with the boot artifacts when booting operating systems such as
Linux. Installing the generated DTBs is also useful when using custom DTBs
instead of relying on those provided by the firmware, so install them when
they are present.
