The fact that the .pem files are at the top level means that they are
output images, which surely is not intended. They should be buried in the
image description, at a lower level, as part of something else.
So please take a loke at the above and see if the binman descriptions can
be reworked slightly to follow these new rules.
I think this can work... but few concerns.
1. Our output binaries also include <image>.bin_unsigned, would extensions that
aren't "standard" be added to the list if they are truly output binaries? If
not, changing names for them may be a long stretch (pinging Vignesh and Nishanth
to comment here).
2. Can it be an option to not enforce this, to support users that may make use
of the intermediate binaries?
Also if we do move forward with this, we will need to sync to make sure that the
changes to the affected boards come through as well.
