kernel-fit: Allow using 'kernel_noload' as sub-image type
Multi platform kernels built by the kernel-fit rule before are not
usable in U-Boot, which adheres more strictly to the Flat Image Tree
(FIT) spec than barebox does. For image sub-type 'kernel' U-Boot
expects valid 'load' and 'entry' addresses. Setting those addresses to
a generic value is impossible however for generic kernels, e.g. the
DistroKit v7a kernel needs different addresses on at91 SAMA5 than
on i.MX6. barebox circumvents this by ignoring missing 'load' and
'entry' addresses and finding a suitable address by itself. For using
generic kernels in U-Boot you need sub-image type 'kernel_noload' and
dummy addresses, which is also supported in barebox from v2024.01.0
release onwards.
