When binman is invoked during a build of U-Boot and an external blob is missing, the user is usually presented with a generic file not found in input path message.
Invoke binman with --allow-missing so that binman can show relevant missing blob help messages. Build continue to fail with missing blobs unless BINMAN_ALLOW_MISSING=1 is used.
This changes the following error message:
binman: Filename 'atf-bl31' not found in input path (...)
to the following:
Image 'itb' is missing external blobs and is non-functional: atf-blob
/binman/itb/fit/images/atf/atf-blob (bl31.bin): See the documentation for your board. You may need to build ARM Trusted Firmware and build with BL31=/path/to/bl31.bin
