Add a patch to zynq-mkbootimage to support using raw .bin boot images.

zynq-mkbootimage expected a .bit file, from which it extracted and converted the bitstream. Raw .bin bitstreams were instead treated as generic binary files and could not be used directly for the PL.

The patch:

  • Enables the destination_device=pl BIF attribute for Zynq-7000.
  • Support processing raw binary bitstreams.

This allows boot images to be generated directly from vivado .bin bitstreams, e.g.:
[destination_device=pl]top.bin
