Hello all,
To address a needed feature brought up by Andreas[0], we need a way to disable SPL from loading non-FIT images.
The function spl_parse_image_header is common to all SPL loading paths (common/spl/spl_(nand|net|nor|etc..)) so we add the check here, much like the existing CONFIG_SPL_ABORT_ON_RAW_IMAGE.
My original attempt was to add CONFIG_SPL_PANIC_ON_MKIMAGE, but then if other formats are added, flaws in restricting image types may be introduced, so we would like a single option to restrict all non-FIT types vs disabling types individually.
Thanks, Andrew

Changes from v1: - Changed to abort on non-FIT so other boot methods can be attempted. - Made this a default if SPL_FIT_SIGNATURE is selected.
