[PATCH] scripts: Add script to extract built-in firmware blobs

[Guilherme G. Piccoli]

Through the options CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE{_DIR} one is able to build
a kernel including firmware blobs in a built-in fashion. This is
usually the case of built-in drivers that require some blobs in
order to work properly, for example, like in non-initrd based systems.

Add hereby a script to extract these blobs from a non-stripped vmlinux,
similar to the idea of "extract-ikconfig". The firmware loader interface
saves such built-in blobs as rodata entries, having a field for the FW
name as "_fw_<module_name>_<firmware_name>_bin"; the tool extracts files
named "<module_name>_<firmware_name>" for each rodata firmware entry
detected. It makes use of awk, bash, dd and readelf, pretty standard
tooling for Linux development.
