This allow us to create image with the following format:
mkimg -v -o sdcard -s gpt -p efi:=esp_aarch64.img:1M -p freebsd-ufs::1G
Which will add a efi partition at a 1M offset on the image with its content
coming from the esp_aarch64.img file.

Even with an absolute offset we want to know the last block the partition
otherwise we endup with an image the size of the metadata.
This allow to create image with the ESP placed at a specific position which
is useful on arm/arm64 where u-boot have always a hard time to read the ESP
if it's not aligned on 512k.
mkimg -v -o sdcard -s gpt -p efi::54M:1M -p freebsd-ufs::1G
now works.

To create hybrid boot media we want to specify a partition at a known location.
This extends the syntax of size partitions to include an optional offset that
can be absolute or relative. It also introduces validation to make sure that
this hasn't resulted in overlapping partitions. I haven't added this to the
file and process partition specifications yet but the mechanics are designed
such that if someone comes up with a good way of specifying the offset it
will be fairly easy to add in.

Add a -C option to specify a maximum capacity for the final image file.
It is useful to control the size of the generated image for sdcard or
when we will add dynamic size partition.
Add --capacity which is a shorthand to define min and max capacity at
the same time.

o Move mkimg_uuid() to a new file and merge both gpt_uuid_enc()

in the same file.

osdep_uuidgen() and provide the implementations for FreeBSD,
macOS and Linux.

a search to the directory in which the headers live. This

Now that schemes don't use lseek(2) nor write(2) directly, it's
