OK I'm not sure what is going on here. But binman should be fairly
quick, so perhaps just rebuild everything? We don't currently bother
to select which images to build.

Perhaps we should add that feature to the build system. But it is
complicated, because the Makefile does not (in general) know what
files are being generated by binman.
