At present buildman only supports building the default target. Generally this is what is wanted, but in some cases boards erroneously have a different target for product extra files.
Add a --target option to help. Also add a comment indicating which letters are free for new options.

How do you use this? It would be nice to be able to do "--target u-boot-initial-env" for example for converting and verifying the conversion of boards to plain text environment. Except the list of artifacts that are kept isn't updated with that string as well. And FWIW, is this for a case not solved by CONFIG_BUILD_TARGET?
It's related to the problem where colibri-imx8 doesn't actually build an image with the default boot target.
But yes, we could add more things to buildman, e.g. it could output the initial env as a file for later parsing.
