This adds a Kconfig string where you can specify a
file to be appended to the zImage on build, then
auto-appends it. The idea is to mimic how we supply
an initramfs image by a similar parameter.
The other option is to encode the .dtb filename into the zImage target
name (something like zImage.%). ?The advantage being that the build
can emit multiple .dtb bound images without changing the kernel
config. ?This is what PowerPC currently does.
Then "make uimage" has to emit uImage.% as well I guess.

I could do that, but it appears Nico don't like making this too
easy to do so I'll just keep it around as some out-of-tree patch
for personal playground.

Thanks,
Linus Walleij
