We currently rarely use the sdcard image as we have to flash an on module
eMMC were we also currently use a separate FAT partition for kernel/dtb
and an ext4 partition for the rootfs.

Going away from that will take some decisions and then work to make all
the boot scripts for all module types again align. Maybe something for
the move to Rocko.

I have a look if I can move to wic with a two partition approach for v2,
probably I can again profit by the work done from Boundary Devices.
