- Create (unsigned) FIT image and put the public key into DTB, with the 'required' property set, telling U-Boot that this key MUST be verified for the image to be valid

Thanks for the description
tools/fit_check_sign does not change any file. The signature is added in step 4.
What seems to be missing in the U-Boot build system is the capability to specify a public key in the configuation file to automatically include the public key in the generated dtbs similar to Linux's CONFIG_SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS.
