I'll add this in the next patch.

No, we still need to read up to NVBOOT_CONFIG_TABLE_SIZE_MAX if needed.

It would be better but it is currently not really needed. Currently the
furthest boot_data_version field is on T124/T132 at an offset of 1744
bytes. Still quiet far from the 4080 bytes that are needed for the
smallest BCT.
